**SALVATION IS 100% FREE BUT HEAVENLY REWARDS ARE 100% EARNED**!!
Tirus 3:4: But when the kindness and **LOVE** of God our *SAVIOR** appeared, He saved us , not because of **RIGHTEOUS THINGS** we had done, but because of His **MERCY**!
Ephesians 2:8,9: For it is by grace you have been saved, through **FAITH**�and this not from yourselves, it is the **GIFT OF GOD**�not by works. So that no one can boast. For we are **GOD'S WORKMANSHIP**, created in Christ Jesus to do **GOOD WORKS**, which God prepared in advance for us to do!
And so God's faithful saints do not earn their salvation by doing good works. They do **GOOD WORKS** after they are born from above because of their love of God who gave them the **FREE GIFT** of eternal life earned by the Atonement of Jesus our Savior; and to earn countless eternal **REWARDS** for faithful and loving service with the different gifts God gives us!!
Hebrews 11:1,6: Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see....And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He *REWARDS** those who earnestly seek Him!!
Ephesians 6:8: Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men, because you know that the Lord will **REWARD** everyone for what ever good he does!
Revelation 22:12 Jesus says, �Behold I am coming soon! My **REWARD** is with Me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done!�
Matthew 16:27: Jesus says, �The Son of Man is going to come in His Father's glory with His angels and THEN He will **REWARD** each person according to what he has done!�
Daniel 12:3: Those who are impart wisdom {NIV} will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever!!
I Corinthians 3:7-9: So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who watered have one purpose, and each will be **REWARDED** according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers, you are God's field, God's building!
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: We make it our goal to please Him... for we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
1 Corinthians 3:13-15: His work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. If what he has built survives , he will receive his **REWARD**. If it is burned up he will suffer loss; he himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames.
2 John 1:8: Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you be **REWARDED FULLY**!
Colossians 3:23-25: Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a **REWARD**. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for his wrong, and there is no favoritism.
2 Peter 1:5-11: Make every effort to add to your faith {A Free Gift} goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness,**LOVE**. For it you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. But if anyone does not have them, he is near-sighted and blind, and has forgotten he has been cleansed of his past sins. Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fail, and you will receive a **RICH WELCOME** into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Revelation 2:17: Jesus says, "To him who overcomes.. I will give him a white stone with a **NEW NAME** written on it, known only to him who receives it!!"
Revelation 3:21: Jesus says, "To him who overcomes, I will give the right to **SIT WITH ME** on My throne, just as I overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne!!"
**HOW TO WIN HEAVENLY ETERNAL CROWNS**
I Corinthians 9:24-27: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes in to strict training. They do it to get a **CROWN** that will not last; but we do it to get a **CROWN THAT WILL LAST FOREVER**! Therefore, I do not run like a man running aimlessly. I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize!
Revelation 3:11: Jesus says, �I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your **CROWN**!�
2 Timothy 4:7,8: I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the **CROWN** of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day�and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for His appearing!
The **CROWN OF LIFE** for those who persevere under trials and persecution:
James 1:12: Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the **CROWN OF LIFE** that God has promised to those who love Him!
Revelation 2:10 Jesus says, �Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer... Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the **CROWN OF LIFE!�
Matthew 5:11,12: Jesus says, �Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your **REWARD** in heaven!�
Hebrews 10:32-36: Remember those earlier days after you had received the Light, when you stood your ground in a great contest in the face of suffering. Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated. You sympathized with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions. So do not throw away your confidence; it will be **RICHLY REWARDED**. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, **YOU RECEIVE WHAT HE HAS PROMISED**!!!

**THE FATHER LOVES HIS FAITHFUL SAINTS **JUST AS MUCH** AS HE LOVES JESUS**!!
John 17:23: Jesus says to His Father, "You sent Me and have **LOVED THEM** even as you **LOVED** Me!!"
**JESUS LOVES HIS FAITHFUL SAINTS **JUST AS MUCH** AS THE FATHER LOVES HIM**!!
John 15:9,10" Jesus says, "As the Father **LOVED** Me, so I have **LOVED** you!! Now remain in My **LOVE . **IF** you obey My commands, you will remain in My **LOVE** , just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in His **LOVE** !"
John 14:21,23: Jesus says, "Whoever has My commands and obeys them, he is the one who **LOVES** Me! He who loves Me will be **LOVED** by My Father, and I will **LOVE** him....If anyone **LOVES** Me, he will obey My teaching. My Father will **LOVE** him, and we will come to him and make Our home with him!!"
I John 3:18: Dear children, let us not **LOVE** with words or tongue but with actions and in truth!
WHAT'S **LOVE**GOT TO DO WITH IT??
I Peter 1:22: "Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere **LOVE** for your brothers, **LOVE** one another deeply, from the heart. For you have been born again... through the living and enduring Word of God!
I Peter 4:8: **ABOVE ALL**, **LOVE** each other **DEEPLY**, because **LOVE**covers over a multitude of sins!
I Corinthians 13:2,4-8: If I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not **LOVE** I am nothing...**LOVE** is patient, **LOVE** is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. **LOVE** does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. **LOVE** never fails!!"
John 13:34: Jesus says, "A NEW command I give you: **LOVE* one another As I have **LOVED** you, so you must **LOVE** one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples." John 15:12,13: Jesus says, "My command is this: **LOVE** each other as I have **LOVED** you. Greater **LOVE** has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
I John 3:16: This how we know what **LOVE** is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers!
Ephesians 5:1,2: Be **IMITATORS OF GOD**, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of **LOVE**, just as Christ **LOVED** us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God!
Luke 6:27,28,35,36: Jesus says, "**LOVE** your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. **LOVE** your enemies, do good to them. and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your **REWARD** will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because He is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful!"
Matthew 28:19.20� Jesus commands, �Go and make disciples of all nations... teaching them to *OBEY EVERYTHING* I have commanded you!� {See I John 2:3-5}
EVERYTHING would also include all the other commands in God's inspired Word from Acts to Revelation as per 2 Timothy 3:16: 4:2: "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work...Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage--with great patience and careful instruction."
If we really **LOVE** our brothers and sister in Christ we will lovingly teach them to obey all the approximately 400 commands of the NT with **LOVE** in the hope of countless eternal rewards when Jesus comes with great power with all His angels.
Revelation 22:112: Jesus says,"Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with Me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done!?
Matthew 16:27: Jesus says, For the Son of Man is going to come in His Father's glory with His angels, and **THEN** He will **REWARD** each person according to what he has done."
Ephesians 4:15: "Speaking the Truth in **LOVE** , we will in all things grow up into Him who is the Head, that is, Christ! From Him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in **LOVE** , as each part does its work."
Ephesians 3:17-19: "I pray that you, being rooted and established in **LOVE** may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the **LOVE** of Christ, and to know this **LOVE** that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God!!"
I John 4:7-12: Dear friends, let us **LOVE** one another, for **LOVE** comes from God. Everyone who **LOVES** has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not **LOVE** does not know God, because God is **LOVE**. This is how God showed His **LOVE**among us: He sent His one and only Son into the world that we might live through Him. This is **LOVE**, not that we **LOVED** God, but that He **LOVED** us and sent His Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends,since God so **LOVED** us, we ought to **LOVE** one another. No one has ever seen God, but if we **LOVE** one another, God lives in us and His **LOVE** is made complete in us!
Romans 8:35,37-39: Who shall separate us from the **LOVE** of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?...We are more than conquerors through Him who **LOVED** us! For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the **LOVE** of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord!!
**SALVATION IS 100% FREE BUT ETERNAL REWARDS IN THE HEAVENLY NEW JERUSALEM ARE 100% EARNED**!!
Titus 3:3,4: At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. But when the kindness and **LOVE** of God our Savior appeared , he saved us, **NOT BECAUSE OF RIGHTEOUS THINGS WE HAD DONE**, but because of **HIS MERCY**!!
John 1:12,13: To all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, he gave the right to become children of God--children born not of natural descent, **NOR OF A HUMAN DECISION** or a husband's will but, **BORN OF GOD**!!
John 6:37,39,44,65: Jesus says, "**ALL** that the Father gives Me **WILL** come to Me, and whoever comes to Me I will **NEVER** drive away... And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall **LOSE NONE** of all that He has given Me, but raise them up at the Last Day.... No one can come to Me **UNLESS** the Father who sent Me **DRAWS HIM**, and I will raise him up at the Last Day!!... No one can come to Me **UNLESS** the Father has **ENABLED THEM**!!"
Ephesians 2:8,9: For it is by grace you have been saved, through **FAITH**�and this not from yourselves, it is the **GIFT OF GOD**�not by works. So that no one can boast. For we are **GOD'S WORKMANSHIP**, created in Christ Jesus to do **GOOD WORKS**, which God prepared in advance for us to do!
And so God's faithful saints do not earn their salvation by doing good works.

2 Peter 1:5-11: Make every effort to add to your faith {A **FREE GIFT**} goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, **LOVE**. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ...Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and **ELECTION SURE**. For if you do these things, you will never fail, and you will receive a **RICH WELCOME** into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!!
Matthew 19:29: Jesus says, " Everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for **MY SAKE** will receive **A HUNDRED TIMES AS MUCH** and will inherit eternal life!!that is in Christ

Revelation 3:12: Jesus says, "Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of My God. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from My God, and I will write on him My new name!!"
Revelation 3:21: Jesus says, "To him who overcomes, I will give the right to **SIT WITH ME** on My throne, just as overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: We make it our goal to please Him... for we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.

"PRAY CONTINUALLY; GIVE THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU IN CHRIST JESUS!!" {I Thess 5:17,18}
Matthew 6:5-11 Jesus commands, �When you PRAY, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues {churches} and on the street corners to be seen by men...But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and PRAY to your FATHER, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret will reward you... This, then, is how you should pray: �Our Father in heaven hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.� and Luke 11:4 adds, **FORGIVE US OUR SINS**, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.�
I John 1:8,9; 2:1,2: If we {believers} claim to be without sin, **WE DECEIVE OURSELVES** and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we {believers} we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar and His word has no place in our lives....If anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the **ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS**!!
Luke 11:1-4: The disciples asked Jesus, "Teach us to pray" Jesus said to His disciples, "When you pray, say: 'Father , hallowed be your name, Your kingdom come. Give us each day our **DAILY** bread. **FORGIVE US {disciples}OUR SINS**, for we forgive everyone who sins against us'"
Here we see that Jesus tells His disciples to daily ask the Father to forgive them of their sins. God's Word states that we must be holy as God is holy as per I Peter 1:15,16; and to walk as Jesus walked as per I John 2:6. And God understands that we really don't understand how much we fall short and sin daily.
The closer we get to God the more we realize how much we fall short and sin daily; and realize our need to confess our sins daily to get closer to God. Take Paul, the greatest NT saint, for example:
I Timothy 1:15,16: Paul said, "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners--of whom **I AM THE WORST**. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, **THE WORST OF SINNERS**, Christ Jesus might display **HIS UNLIMITED PATIENCE** as an example for those who would believe on Him and receive eternal life.
Matthew 26:41: Jesus says, �Watch and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing but the body is weak.�
I Timothy 5:5: The widow who is really in need and left all alone puts her hope in God and continues night and day to pray and ask God for HELP!
I Thessalonians 5:17,18: Pray **CONTINUALLY**; **GIVE THANKS IN ALL** circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
James 5:13-16: Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
Philemon 1:6: I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith.
Acts 6:4: We will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the Word!
Matthew 5:44: Jesus commands, �Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.�

And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know that love which surpasses knowledge�that you may be filled to the measure of the fullness of God!
2 Thessalonians 1:11,12: We constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of His calling, and that by His power He may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. We pray this that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Philippians 4:6: Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving present your requests to God.
I John 5:17 This is the confidence we have in approaching God; that if we ask anything ACCORDING TO HIS WILL He hears us.
James 4:3: When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with the wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures!
Romans 8:26,27: The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with GOD'S WILL!
Matthew 18:10-14: Jesus said, �Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men�robbers, evildoers, adulterers�or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector stood at a distance, He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'God, have mercy on me, a sinner.' �I tell you that this man rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted!�
**FIX YOUR *THOUGHTS* ON JESUS**!!
Hebrews 3:1: Therefore, holy brothers who share in the heavenly calling, **FIX YOUR THOUGHTS ON JESUS**!!
Hebrews 4:12,13: The Word of God is living and active, sharper than any double edged sword... It judges the **THOUGHTS** and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. **EVERYTHING** is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account!
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: We make it our goal to please Him... For we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad!

Romans 12:2: Be transformed by the **RENEWING OF YOUR MIND**. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--His good, pleasing and perfect will!!
Romans 8:5,6: Those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their **MINDS** set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the **MIND** controlled by the Spirit is life and peace!
Philippians 4:8,9: Finally, brothers, whatever is **TRUE**, whatever is **NOBLE**, whatever is **RIGHT**, whatever is **PURE**, whatever is **LOVELY**, whatever is **ADMIRABLE**,**THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS**... And the God of peace will be with you!!

**INTERESTING **70 YEAR** TIME PERIODS IN BIBLE PROPHECY**!!
It is interesting to note that the Kings of Israel ruled 490 Years or **70 YEARS** times **7** years, which was immediately followed by a **70 YEAR** exile of the Jews, which was then immediately followed by the amazing prophesy of the **70 YEARS** times **7** years Prophecy in Daniel 9:24-27; which will end with the 2nd coming of Jesus and **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS**!! Also in the prophecy of the **70 YEARS** times **7** years it states in Daniel 7:26 "The people of the {Roman} ruler who will come will destroy the city {Jerusalem} and the Sanctuary." This prophecy was fulfilled and the Jews exiled again in AD **70** until the rebirth of Israel at midnight, May 14th, 1948!! The **70 YEAR** Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will take place at midnight on **MAY 14TH, 2018**??
Daniel 9:24-27: Seventy "sevens" {**70 YEARS** times 7 or 490 years} are decreed for your people and your holy city to **ANOINT THE MOST HOLY** {After 483 Years}, to **ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS** {After 486 1/2 years} and to bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** {On the Last Day of the Last 1260-day Tribulation or 490 total years}...From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus--See Isaiah 44:28} until the Anointed One comes {On October 5th AD 29}, there will be 62 7's and 7 7's {Or 69 7's or 483 years}... Then {3 1/2 years or 1278 days later} the Anointed One will be cut off...He will confirm a Covenant with many for one 7 {Or the Last 7 years}. In the middle of the 'seven' {After 3 1/2 years} He {The Anointed One} will put an **END TO SACRIFICES** and offering.{On April 3-5 AD 33} {And then after a long pause} He will set up an abomination that causes desolation {666} for 1260 days, until the decreed end is poured out on him at the 2nd Coming of Jesus {As per Rev 19:19,20 and 2 Thess 2:8} Which will bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** on the Last Day of the **70 YEARS** times 7 Prophecy!
Luke 3:21,22: When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended on Him {ANOINTING} in bodily form like a dove. And a Voice came from heaven, "You are My Son, whom I love, with You I am well pleased!"
Matthew 18::21,22: Peter asked Jesus, "How many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not **7** times, but **70** times **7 times**!" {See NIV footnote}
Jesus is called the Son of David 17 times and David lived exactly **70 YEARS** as per 2 Samuel 5:4.
Acts 1:6,7: The disciples asked Jesus, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said , "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority."
Luke 21:5,6,23,24: Some of His disciples were remarking about how the Temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, "As for what you see here, the time will come {In AD **70**} when not one stone will be left on another, every one of them will be thrown down!... There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations {In AD **70**}. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are **FULFILLED**!"
This prophecy was **FULFILLED** and The kingdom was restored to Israel at midnight on May 14th, AD 1948. It is interesting to note that **70 YEARS** after midnight, May 14th, 1948 will be at midnight,** MAY 14TH, 2018**!!???
By a very interesting coincidence this prophesy and the rising of Jesus to heaven took place exactly 40 days after the Resurrection of Jesus when our Savior put an end to all sacrifices for sin in the middle of the last **7** years of the **70 YEARS** times **7** years !! The Resurrection of Jesus took place on April 5th, AD 33 and 40 Bible days after April 5th, AD 33 would be **ASCENSION DAY** and would have been on sundown, May 14th AD 33 to sundown, May 15th, AD 33!! And so midnight, May 14th, AD 1948 is on **ASCENSION DAY** and **70 YEARS** later at midnight, **MAY 14TH, 2018** would also take place on **ASCENSION DAY**!!
Acts 1:1-3; 6-11: I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach until the **DAY** He was taken up to heaven... After His suffering {On April 3-5 AD 33}, He showed Himself to these men and gave many convincing proofs that He was alive. He appeared to them over a period of **FORTY DAYS** {Until ASCENSION DAY** which was from sundown, May 14th to sundown, May 15th AD 33} and spoke about the kingdom of God...So when they met together, they asked Him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said to them, "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority {Which took place on midnight, May 14th, 1948}... After He said this, He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid Him from their sight . They were looking intently up into the sky as He was going, when suddenly **TWO MEN** {Moses & Elijah} dressed in white stood beside them. "Men of Galilee," they said, "Why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into heaven!!" {On the Last Day of the **70 YEARS** times **7**; when he will bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS**!!}
**INTERESTING SPECULATIVE QUESTION??
Will something interesting happen related to the **70 YEARS** times **7** Prophecy; take place exactly **70 YEARS** after the rebirth of Israel at midnight on **MAY 14TH, 2018**?? Such as the beginning of the Last half of the **70 YEARS** times **7**.{The 1260-day Great Tribulation} or the coming of God's two Israeli witnesses {Moses and Elijah} for their 1260-day testimony; or the signs that will take place shortly before the Great Tribulation??? This, of course, is just a very interesting **SPECULATION**!
Immediately after the Resurrection Day of the saints; mentioned in I Thessalonians 4:16,17; we read in I Thessalonians 5:4,5: But **YOU, BROTHERS**, are not in darkness so that **THIS DAY** should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness!!
Revelation 3:3: Jesus says, "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But ***IF*** you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you!!"
When the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins or the 1260-day testimony of Moses and Elijah begins 1263 1/2 days before the Last Day; the saints will then know the exact Last Day when Jesus will come with **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** which will begin on the Last Day of the **70 YEARS** times 7 !!
Question? Why did Jesus reduce the Great Tribulation or last half of the Last 7 years in Daniel 9:27 from 3 1/2 years or 1278 days to 1260-days or 42 30-day months? Matthew 24:21-22: Jesus says, "For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now {See Daniel 12:1,2}--and never to be equaled again. If those {1278} days had not been **CUT SHORT**, no one would survive, bur for the sake of the elect those {1278 } days will be shortened!" {to 1260 days}And so the 1278-day Great Tribulation and reign of **666** will be shortened by 18 or **6+6+6** days.
By comparing Revelation 12:6 with Revelation 12:14 we know that 1260 days and time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time {180 days} is the exact same period of time. And by comparing Revelation 13:5 with Daniel 7:25 we know that 42 30-day months and time {12 months} times {24 months} and 1/2 a time {6 months} is the exact same period of time! And therefore 1260 days and 42 30-day months is the exact same period of time!
**WHAT SIGNS WILL TAKE PLACE SHORTLY BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE 1260-DAY GREAT TRIBULATION**??
**ARE SOME OF THESE SIGNS OF THE END-TIMES TAKING PLACE RIGHT NOW!!**??
Matthew 24:3-6,9: The disciples asked Jesus, "What will be the sign of your coming and the end of the age??" Jesus answered, "Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, claiming: 'I am the Christ;' and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen but the end is still to come." {Luke 21:11 adds: Jesus says, "There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven!"} "Then {During the 1260-day Tribulation} you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by **ALL NATIONS** because of Me!"
2 Timothy 3:1-5: But mark this: There will be terrible times **IN THE LAST DAYS** People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God--having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.
I Timothy 4:1-2: The Spirit say that **IN LATER TIMES** some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.
Daniel 12:4: Daniel, close up and seal the words of the scroll **UNTIL THE TIME OF THE END**! **MANY WILL GO HERE AND THERE** to **INCREASE KNOWLEDGE**!!
The **INCREASE IN KNOWLEDGE** and inventions in the last 110 years through Worldwide **RADIO, MOVIES, TELEPHONE, TELEVISION** and the **INTERNET** has been unbelievable compared to all the knowledge and inventions before that time!!
**MANY PEOPLE GOING HERE AND THERE** and everywhere has fantastically increased in the past 115 years with amazing **AUTOMOBILES, MOTORCYCLES, BUSSES, TRAINS and AEROPLANES**!!
Matthew 24:15: Jesus says, This Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in the **WHOLE WORLD** as a testimony to **ALL NATIONS** and **THEN THE END WILL COME**!"
The preaching of the Gospel throughout the **WHOLE WORLD** to even remote islands in the Pacific has just recently been **COMPLETED**!!
**WHAT ARE THE 4 AMAZING PROPHECIES CONCERNING ISRAEL THAT ALREADY HAVE BEEN FULFILLED OR ARE BEING FULFILLED **??
There are many prophecies concerning the Jews in the end times, many of which began to be fulfilled in the 20th Century, but there are **FOUR** key ones. The *FIRST** is their worldwide regathering. {Isaiah 11:12}. In 1900 there were only 40,000 Jews in Palestine. By the end of World War II that number had risen to 800,000. As of May, 2016, there were **6,450,000** Jews in Israel who have come from all over the world or the **FOUR QUARTERS OF THE EARTH**!. According to www.Jewishvirtuallibrary.org there is a population growth rate of 1.7 % a year of Jews in Israel which would be 3.4% in 2 years. If you multiply 3.4 % times 6,450,000 you would have about 216,000 more Jews in Israel by May of 2018. 6,450,000 plus 216,000 equals **6,66*0,000** Jews in Israel by **MAY 14 2018**!
Isaiah 11:12 He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel, He will assemble the scattered people of Judah from the **FOUR QUARTERS OF THE EARTH**!!
The **SECOND** key prophecy concerning the Jews is a natural consequence of their regathering. It is the re-establishment of Israel which occurred on midnight, **MAY 14, 1948**.
Acts 1:6,7: They asked Jesus, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said to them: "It is not for you to know the times and dates the Father has sent by His own authority." This amazing prophecy was fulfilled on midnight on **MAY 14TH, 1948**!! And the **70 YEAR ANNIVERSARY** of the rebirth of Israel and occupation of 1/2 of Jerusalem will be at midnight on **MAY 14TH, 2018**!!
The **THIRD** key prophecy is the Jewish re-occupation of all of **JERUSALEM** which occurred at 10 AM, June 7, 1967 during the miraculous Six Day War. Midnight,**MAY 14TH, 2018** is **49{7X7} YEARS** plus **707 DAYS** after 10 AM June 7th, 1967!!
Zechariah 8:4,5,7: This is what the Lord almighty says, "Once again men and women of ripe old age will sit in the streets of **JERUSALEM**, each with cane in hand because of his age. The city streets will be filled with boys and girls playing there!... I will save My people from the countries of the east and the west. I will bring them back to live in **JERUSALEM**!"
The **FOURTH** key prophecy is the one whose fulfillment we are witnessing today � the re-focusing of world politics upon the nation of Israel. All the nations of the world are coming against Israel over the issue of the control of the nation�s capital � the city of **JERUSALEM**{Zechariah 12:1-3}. The Vatican wants the city put under its control. The United Nations wants it to be internationalized. The European Union is demanding it be divided between the Arabs and the Jews. The Arabs want all of it. Donald Trump promises that he will make **JERUSALEM** the capital of Israel and all the Muslim nations are threatening war if this takes place, and this war could escalate into a **WORLD WAR AND WORLD CHAOS**!!
Zechariah 12:1-3 The Lord declares, "I am going to make **JERUSALEM** a cup that sends all the surrounding nations reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem, on that day, when all the nations of earth are gathered against her!!"
Jeremiah 29:12,13: This is what the The Lord Almighty says {About Jews} "I will make them abhorrent to all the kingdoms of the earth and an object of cursing and horror, of scorn and reproach among all the nations!!"
On December 23, 2016, the **UNITED NATIONS** of the world severely condemned Israel for its settlements! December 23rd, 2016 is exactly 507 days before the **70TH YEAR** Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018**. 72 weeks or 72X7 would take up 504 days leaving 3 days or 72 hours. And so the time period from December 23rd, 2016 to **MAY 14TH, 2018** and the possible coming of **666** would be exactly **66+6** weeks plus **66+6** hours.
On Deceber 23rd, 2016 Barak Hussein Obama abandoned America's commitment to Israel's security and the end of their democracy against Muslim aggression. In an act of cowardly venom Obama had the United States abstain from a United Nations resolution--and thereby effectively enact a United Nations resolution that completely condemns Israel and their settlements. A resolution that undertakes to render Israel indefensible. This very unfair resolution greatly increases the tension and chaos in the Middle East and gives the Muslim countries an excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel.
Donald Trump has promised that the Jews could have their **CAPITAL** in **JERUSALEM** and all the Muslim countries have promised that they would go to *WAR** with Israel if this takes place and this war could escalate into a **WORLD WAR AND WORLD CHAOS**!! On January 24th, 2017 Israel announced that it was going to build 2,500 New Settlements on Palestinian territory which absolutely contradicts the UN resolution and would further escalate the tensions in the Middle East; and gives the Muslim countries yet another excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel.
In the **7**th Day of the reign or the World's most powerful leader a **TRAVEL-BAN** was enforced on **7** Muslim countries. This has caused a worldwide condemnation and demonstrations in the USA and condemnation in most of the countries in the world. This and possibly many more actions by the world's most powerful World leader will surely cause **CHAOS** throughout the world.
**COULD DONALD TRUMP BE PRESIDENT WHEN THE GREAT TRIBULATION BEGINS**??
As you know **70 7's** and **666** are very prominent numbers in Bible prophecy. Someone just pointed out to me that Donald Trump was born on June 14th, 1946 at 10:54 AM which I checked out. Donald Trump became the most powerful world leader when he was inaugurated at Noon on January 20th, 2017. And so Donald Trump was exactly **70 YEARS** plus **7 MONTHS** plus **6** days plus **66** minutes old when he becomes the most powerful leader in the world!
Donald Trump became the most powerful leader in the world at noon, on January 20th, 2017; and the **70TH YEAR** anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will be at midnight, **MAY 14TH, 2018**. Noon, January 20th, 2017 until Noon, May 14th, 2018 is exactly 479 days and noon, May 14th, 2018 until midnight, **MAY 14TH, 2018** would take place on the 480th day. **66** weeks or 66X7 equals 462 days; which leaves another 18 or **6+6+6** days!!! And so Donald Trump became the most powerful leader in the world exactly **66** weeks plus **6+6+6** days before the speculative coming off **666** who will then become the most powerful leader in the world.
Trump is certainly not a saint. About 80 % of the Evangelicals voted for him because they were afraid that Hillary would select the next 2 or 3 Chief Justices who would be very tough on Evangelicals who preached against gay marriage etc. and possibly remove their tax free status.
However, Trump is just as evil as Hillary or Obama. Trump's favorite pastor was the famous liberal, Norman Vincent Peale who made fun of people who believe in the inspiration of God's Word or the Divinity of Jesus or eternal hell etc, He also taught that it is moral to have a huge ego and you don't have to repent of your sins. Trump has repeatedly said that he has never repented of anything he did. Trump owned a gambling casino which really steal people's money with tremendous odds. His casino also had very lewd shows with topless women doing very sinful gyrations.
Trump has had 3 wives. In the last year of his first wife he had a very open adulterous relationship with Marla Maples, his future 2nd wife, and he then made the cover of Playboy magazine. He then married his 3rd and last wife who is 25 years younger. Trump became famous for bragging to a TV reporter that he could grab women's crotches and get away with it because he is so rich, handsome and famous. About 6 months ago 10 women claimed that they were sexually harassed or fondled by Trump. When someone objects to his vulgar language or ideas he is very good at viciously attacking them and he never turns the other cheek as Jesus has commanded. Trump is very rich and loves and worships the **ALMIGHTY DOLLAR**
Trump's favorite preacher for the past 15 years has been Paula White and she is now in the **INNER CIRCLE** of Trump's advisers. Paula White promotes pornography and declares that divorce is **GIFT FROM GOD** Paula White has made a fortune taking money from gullible people with her Prosperity Gospel. Paula White has also had an adulterous affair with Benny Hinn who is the king of those preaching the Prosperity Gospel.
I Timothy 6:9,10: People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and many foolish desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil!.
Trump and Putin and China are now by far the *THREE** most Powerful and Evil leaders in the world and have about 90 % of the world's nuclear bombs and would most likely embrace the coming of the evil 666!
THE AMAZING PROPHECY OF ST MALACHY IN AD 1139 THAT THERE WILL BE 112 POPES AFTER AD 1139 AND THAT DURING THE REIGN OF THE 112TH POPE THE END OF THE WORLD WILL COME. POPE FRANCIS IS THE 112TH POPE!!
St. Malachy was the Archbishop of Armagh, Ireland and a very good archbishop who always helped the poor. He claimed he experienced a vision while visiting Rome in 1139 AD. He said he saw every pope that would exist from the time of his vision until the last pope. The last pope would be the 112th from the time of his vision. Malachy also stated that the last pope would be a very evil pope and that God would judge everyone and the city of Rome would be destroyed during the reign of this last pope.
When John Paul II died on April 2, 2005, articles were written pointing out that the pope who would replace John Paul II would be the 111th pope. Benedict XVI was 78 years of age when he began his papacy on April 19th, 2005. Because of his advanced age, it was obvious that his reign as the Bishop of Rome could not last too long. Everyone understood the next pope, according to St. Malachy, would be the last pope. Malachy also said the church would be judged, Rome would be destroyed, and implied that the end of the world would come during this final papacy. The question on everyone�s mind was: How long till the 112th pope?
On February 11, 2013, Pope Benedict shocked the world by announcing his intention to resign from the papacy. This was the first resignation of a pope while in office in over 600 years. Benedict said that, at the age of 85, he no longer had the strength to execute the duties of leading the Roman Catholic Church. It was time to elect the 112th pope foretold in the vision of St. Malachy! Overlooking St. Peter�s Square, the announcement was made that Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina had been elected the 112th pope in the prophecy on March 13th, 2013!!
He was 76 years of age when elected pope and chose to take the name Pope Francis for his papal name. Francis is the first non-European pope and the first pope ever elected from the very Satanic Jesuit order. The Satanic Pope Francis is the leader of about 1,000,000,000 {One Billion} Roman Catholics and it is quite obvious that he is very evil and Satanic and possibly would qualify to be the future False Prophet of 666!!
**DOES POPE FRANCIS QUALIFY TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666 WHO WILL COME UP FROM THE ABYSS OR HELL?? IS THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666 ALREADY HERE!!**??
WILL 666 COME UP FROM THE ABYSS OR HELL??
Revelation 11:7: The Beast {666} that comes **UP FROM THE ABYSS** will attack them, and overpower and kill them.
Revelation 17:8: The Beast {666}, which you saw, once was {Alive}, now is not (Alive in AD 96}, and yet will **COME UP OUT OF THE ABYSS** and go to his destruction. {as per Rev 19:20 & 2 Thess 2:8} {That the Abyss is Hell is shown in Luke 8:30-31} There are many who believe that the **6**th Caesar who killed Paul and Peter in AD **66** and whose name adds up to exactly **666** in Hebrew, and is now in the Abyss or hell, will come up from the Abyss and become the Beast {*666*}who rule the world during the 1260-day Great Tribulation.
Jesus is called a **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation and in Revelation 13:11states the False Prophet of 666 will be **LIKE A LAMB** which implies that he may be a very deceptive religious leader.
Revelation 17:9 shows that the future headquarters of 666 and his False Prophet will be the evil city on 7 hills or Rome {See Rev 17:9}; which is also the present headquarters of Pope Francis and the former headquarters of 666 who will come up from the Abyss!! {See Daniel 7:23-25}
A Roman Catholic Priest Says Homosexuality Is Gift From God, And That The Bible Is Not The Word Of God, And Then Pope Francis Kisses His Hand And Praises Him??
A 93 year old Italian priest named Michele de Paolis, considered to be Italy�s most rebellious priest and amongst the most universally notorious advocates for the Catholic Church to change its position on homosexuality, said:, "Homosexual love is a gift from (God) no less than heterosexual. This same damned heretic said, "The Bible �is� not the word of God And now, just a few days ago, Francis, whether by his own will or through some malicious advisors, celebrated mass with this evil man and then kissed his hand????
VATICAN CITY (RNS) Pope Francis on Monday (Oct. 27) waded into the controversial debate over the origins of human life, saying the big bang theory and evolution did not contradict the role of a divine creator, but even required it. The pope was addressing the plenary assembly of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, which gathered at the Vatican to discuss �Evolving Concepts of Nature.� Pope Francis said, �When we read about Creation in Genesis, we run the risk of imagining God was a magician, with a magic wand able to do everything. But that is not so,� Francis said. �He created human beings and let them develop according to the internal laws that he gave to each one so they would reach their fulfillment.� �God is not a divine being or a magician, but the Creator who brought everything to life,� the pope said. �Evolution in nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation, because evolution requires the creation of beings that evolve.�
Giovanni Bignami, a professor and president of Italy�s National Institute for Astrophysics, welcomed Francis� comments, saying he had buried the �pseudo theories� of creationists. The pope�s statement is significant,� Bignami told Italian news agency Adnkronos. �We are the direct descendants from the Big Bang that created the universe. Evolution came from creation.�
Pope Francis: says, The Church could support civil unions??? By Daniel Burke, CNN Belief Blog Co-Editor (CNN) - Pope Francis suggested in a newspaper interview that it could support some types of civil unions. The Pope reiterated the church's longstanding teaching that "marriage is between a man and a woman." However, he said, "We have to look at different cases and evaluate them in their variety." States, for instance, justify civil unions as a way to provide economic security to cohabitating couples, the Pope said in a wide-ranging interview published Wednesday in Corriere della Sera, an Italian daily. State-sanctioned unions are thus driven by the need to ensure rights like access to health care, Francis added.
A number of Catholic bishops have supported civil unions for same-sex couples, including Pope Francis when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 2010, according to reports in National Catholic Reporter and The New York Times. Behind closed doors, Pope Francis supported civil unions in Argentina, activist says. But Wednesday's comments are "the first time a Pope has indicated even tentative acceptance of civil unions," according to Catholic News Service.
Francis delivers homilies each day, the contents of which are summarized by Vatican Radio. On May 22, 2015 he caused no shortage of confusion when he suggested that even atheists could find salvation. Obama has said the exact same thing!!! In his homily, Francis said: "The Lord has redeemed all of us, with the Blood of Christ:, not just Catholics. Everyone! Even the atheists. Everyone!" However Jesus says, "No one can come to the Father except through Me." John 1:12,13: To all who received Him {Jesus}, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God--children born not of human descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God!
Pope Francis also says "Who am I to judge homosexuals." and Pope Francis states that sincere homosexuals will also enter the kingdom of heaven just like Obama. But what does God's Word say?? I Corinthians 6:9-11: Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor **HOMOSEXUAL OFFENDERS** will inherit the kingdom of God. {Unless they repent} And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Responding to a list of questions published in the paper by Mr Scalfari, who is not a Roman Catholic, Francis wrote: �You ask me if the God of the Christians forgives those who don�t believe and who don�t seek the faith. I start by saying � and this is the fundamental thing � that God�s mercy has no limits if you go to him with a sincere and contrite heart. The issue for those who do not believe in God is to obey their conscience. �Sin, even for those who have no faith, exists when people disobey their conscience"????
Pope Francis expressed praise on September 25th, 2015 for Obama's ridiculous nuclear deal struck with very evil Iran during a speech at the United Nations' General Assembly in New York. "The recent agreement reached on the nuclear question in a sensitive region of Asia and the Middle East is proof of the potential of political good will and of law, exercised with sincerity, patience and constancy."
Pope Francis totally agrees with Obama and believes that all who do not believe in Global Warming are sinning and everyone who does not do something to reduce global warming is sinning.
Pope Francis is an extreme socialist who believes that all capitalism is extremely evil!! The Pope also loves socialism just like Obama and believes that anyone who does not believe in socialism is sinning!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that people of all beliefs other than Christianity such as Muslims and even atheists shall go to heaven if they are sincere and lead a good life.
For the First Time in History in History a Pope refuses to judge or condemn homosexuals or those who participate in Gay Marriage!!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that everyone who does not believe in Global Warming is Sinning and all who do not do something to reduce Global Warming is Sinning!!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that **ALL** capitalism is evil and all who do not believe in socialism are Sinning!!
For the first time in History the Roman Catholic Church has elected a **JESUIT POPE*!! One of the main enforcers of the Roman Catholic Inquisitions were the Jesuits. All Jesuits take the same Satanic oath today. Pope Francis has taken and administered this same Satanic Jesuit oath which includes the following amazing statements:"I promise and declare that I will, when opportunity presents, make and wage war , secretly and openly, against all heretics and protestants as I am directed to do, to extirpate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, sex nor condition, and that I will hang, burn, waste, boil, flay, strangle, and bury alive those infamous heretics; rip open their stomachs and wombs of their women, and crush their infants heads against the walls in order to annihilate their execrable race.
And so it is interesting to note that the 112th and last pope {??} who is the leader of about 1,000,000,000 {One Billion} Roman Catholics agrees with Satan on everything!!
Matthew 23:9: "Jesus says, "Do not call *ANYONE on earth 'father,' for you have **ONE FATHER**, and He is in *HEAVEN*!!" This is an obvious reference to a SPIRITUAL FATHER since earthly fathers of earthly children are mentioned hundreds of times in God's Word. And so according to Jesus: calling the leader of the Satanic Roman Catholic Church 'Holy Father' is a terrible sin.
Pope Francis {Who Satanists call **HOLY FATHER**} has made a Papal Decree stating that he alone has given power to Roman Catholic priests {Who Satanists call **FATHERS**} to forgive **ALL ABORTIONS** which would include Gruesome and Horrific Abortions an hour before conception!! Is this **MURDER**??
As usual, the Satanic Pope Francis is absolutely contradicting God's Sacred Word!!:
Psalm 22:10: David said, "From my mother's **WOMB** you have been My God!"
Psalm 139:13: David said, "For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's **WOMB**!"
Isaiah 44:2: This is what the Lord says--He who made you, who formed you in the **WOMB**!
Isaiah 44:24: This is what the Lord says--your Redeemer, who formed you in the **WOMB**!
Jeremiah 1:5: The Lord said, "Before I formed you in the **WOMB** I knew you!"
And so we can safely conclude that Pope Francis completely qualifies to be the future deceptive False Prophet of 666 from the evil city on 7 hills!!
Pope Francis was born at 9 PM on December 17th, 1936 in Buenos Aries Argentina which is 5 hours less than Jerusalem Bible time which would be 2 AM, December 18th, 1936. What is the interesting time period between 2 AM , December 18th, 1936 to 2 AM, **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021**??
The time period from December 18th, 1936 to December 18th, 2020 is exactly 84 years or **77 + 7** years. And the time period between December 18th 2020 and **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021** is exactly 315 days.
***7** 30-day Bible months would be 210 days leaving 105 days. 14 or **7 + 7** weeks would take 98 days leaving **7** days!
And so the total time period from the birth of Pope Francis at 2 AM, December 18th,1936, Jerusalem time; to 2 AM, October 25th, 2021 would be **77 + 7** years plus **7** months Plus**7+7** weeks plus **7** days before the Last Day on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 at the possible 2nd Coming of Jesus, who holds the 7 spirits of God and the 7 angels, when the **7** angel will sound the **7**th and last trumpet!!
**BIBLE CHRONOLOGY BEGINNING WITH THE CREATION OF ADAM UNTIL NOW**
These chronologies are recorded in Genesis 5:2-32 and Genesis 11:10-26:
Adam became the father of Seth at age .............. 130
Seth became the father of Enosh at age ...............105
Enosh became the father of Kenan at age ............. 90
Kenan became the father of Mahalel at age..............70
Mahalel became the father of Jared at age..............65
Jared became the father of Enoch at age ..............162
Enoch became the father of Methusaleh at age ......... 65
Methusaleh became the father Lamech at age.......... 187
Lamech became the father of Noah at age ..............182
Noah became the father of Shem at age ................500
Shem became the father of Arphaxed at age ............100
Arphaxad became the father of Shelah at age .......... 35
Shelah bacame the father of Eber at age ...............30
Eber became the father of Peleg at age ................34
Peleg became the father of Reu at age .................30
Reu became the father of Serug at age .................32
Serug became the father of Nahor at age ...............30
Nahor became the father of Terah at age ...............29
Terah became the father of Abram{Abraham}at age...70 for a total of 1946 years after Adam was created.
Abraham entered the land of Canaan at age 75 which was 2021 years after Adam was created.
Exodus 12:40: Now the length of time the Israelite people lived in Egypt and Canaan{See NIV footnote}was 430 years. At the end of 430 years, **TO THE VERY DAY** the Lord's divisions left Egypt.
So Israel left Egypt 430 years after Abraham entered Canaan which was 2021 years after Adam was created and so Israel left Egypt 2021 + 430 or 2451 years after Adam was created.
**CHRONOLOGY OF THE 22 KINGS**
Saul king of all Israel for 42 years {I Samuel 13:1}
David king of all Israel for 40 years {I Kings 2:11}
Solomon king of all Israel for 40 years {I Kings 11:42} Solomon started to build God's Temple 3 years and 32 days after he began to reign.
After the death of King Solomon; the Kingdom of Israel was divided into Northern Israel with the Kings of Israel and southern Israel with 19 kings of Judah with headquarters in Jerusalem. The Kingdom of northern Israel was exiled by the King of Assyria during the reign of Ahaz, king of Judah. {Read 2 Kings 17:1-41}
**19 KINGS OF JUDAH**
Rehoboam king for 17 years {I Kings 14:21}
Abijah king for 5 years {I Kings 15:1,2}
Asa king for 41 years {I Kings 15:9,10}
Jehoshaphat king for 25 years {2 Chron 20:31}
Jehoram king for 8 years {2 Chron 21:5}
Ahaziah king for 1 year {2 Chron 22:2}
Joash hidden in Temple for 6 years as the King of Israel Athaliah ruled for 6 years {2 Chron 22:12}
Joash then became king for 40 years {2 Chron 24:19}
Amaziah king for 29 years {2 Chron 25:1}
Uzziah {Also called Azariah} king for 52 years {2 Chron 26:2}
Jotham king for 16 years {2 Chron 27:1}
Ahaz king for 16 years {2 Chron 28:1}
Hezekiah king for 29 years {2 Chron 29:1}
Manasseh king for 55 years { 2 Chron 33:1}
Amon king for 2 years {2 Chron 33:21}
Josiah king for 31 years {2 Chron 34:1}
Jehoahaz king for 3 months {2 Chron 36:2}
Jehoiakim king for 11 years {2 Chron 36:5}
Jehoiachin king for 3 months {2 Chron 36:9}
Zedekiah king for 11 years {2 Chron 36:11}
For a total of 490 years + 6 months + 10 days {Or 190 days}for the 22 kings above before the 70-year exile of Israel to Babylon. {See 2 Chronicles 36:20,21.
I Kings 6:1 In the 480th year after the Israelites had come out of Egypt, in the 4th year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, the second month, he began to build the Temple of the Lord. 2 Chronicles 3:2: He {Solomon} began building on the second day of the second month in the 4th year of his reign.
And so Solomon began building the Temple after 3 years and 32 days of the 4th year of his reign and 479 years and 32 days of the 480th year after the Israelites left Egypt which was 2451 years after the birth of Adam for a total of 2930 years + 32 days after the birth of Adam.
Saul had reigned 42 years and David ruled for 40 years and Solomon reigned 3 years and 32 days for a total of 85 years and 32 days from the first day of Saul's reign until the Temple was started. And since the 22 Judean kings ruled 490 years + 190 days before their 70 year exile to Babylon then there would have been 405 years + 158 days from when Solomon started the Temple until the 70-year exile. 490 years plus 190 days minus 85 years + 32 days equals exactly 405 years plus 158 days.
250 years earlier the Lord made this amazing prophecy in Isaiah 45:13: The Lord said, "I will raise up Cyrus in My righteousness. He will rebuild My city and set my exiles free!!" {Read 2 Chronicles 36:22,23}
Daniel 9:24,25: 70 7's {or 490 years} are decreed for your people and your Holy City... Know and understand this: From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus} to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the Ruler, comes, there will be 7 7's and 62 7's {69 7's or 483 years}!!
And so this amazing prophecy confirms that the coming and Anointing of the Anointed Savior would take pace exactly 69 7's or 483 years after the decree of Cyrus which took place on October 5th, AD 29 which was 3 1/2 years or 1278 days before Jesus put an end to all sacrifices for sin in the middle of the last 7 years {See Dan 9:27a} on April 3-5, AD 33.
And so the time period from Solomon starting the Temple to the Anointing of Jesus would have been 405 years + 158 days + 70 years + 483 years for a total of 958 years and 158 days. And the time period from the birth of Adam to Solomon starting the Temple would have been 2930 years + 32 days plus 958 years + 158 days for a grand total of 3,888 years plus 190 days.
Let us suppose that the 1260-day Great Tribulation will begin on the 70-YEAR** Anniversary of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018** and end 1260 days later at the 2nd Coming of Jesus on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021**
The time period from the Anointing of Jesus or the 1st Coming of Jesus on October 5th, AD 29 to the speculative 2nd Coming of Jesus on October 25th, 2021 would be exactly 1992 years plus 20 days. And then the time period from the birth of Adam to the 2nd Coming of Jesus would be 1,992 years + 20 days plus 3,888 years + 190 days for a grand total of 5,880 years plus 210 days. 7 times 840 years is 5,880 years and so **7** times **770 + 70** years is also 5,880 years. And 210 days is also **70+70+70** days. And so the time period from the birth of Adam to the possible 2nd Coming of Jesus would be exactly **7** times **770+70** years plus **70+70+70** days!!
The idea that something may happen related to the End-Times on the **70** YEAR ANNIVERSARY** of the birth of Israel is, of course, just an interesting **SPECULATION**!
God also made some interesting promises to Israel after their **70-YEAR** exile:
Jeremiah 29:10-14: This is what the Lord says, "When **70 YEARS** are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill My gracious promise to bring you back to this place. For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord. "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a **FUTURE** Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares the Lord!!
Zechariah 13:8,9: "In the whole land" {After the **70TH** Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel??} declares the Lord, "Two- thirds will be struck down and perish, yet one-third will be left in it, This third I will bring into the fire, I will refine them like silver, and test them like gold. They will call on My name and I will answer them; I will say, "They are My people," and they will say, "The Lord is our God." {This will happen during the 1260-day Great Tribulation}
According to the latest census there are about 6,500,000 Jews in Israel and there will be about 6,600,000 a year from now. One third of 6,600,000 would be about 2,200,000 Jews will be saved. Christian missionaries estimate that there only about 4,000 Jews in Israel that are truly saved at this time!!
Romans 11:25-27: I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited. Israel has experienced a hardening in part, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in {Read Rev 7:9,14} And so all Israel will be saved. {The 1/3 who are left} {With the help of 144,000 Jewish evangelists and God's 2 Jewish witnesses--Moses and Elijah!!}
Jesus says, **THIS GENERATION** will certainly not pass away **UNTIL **ALL** THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED**" {Matthew 24:34}
**WIKIPEDIA HAS DEFINED **BABY BOOMERS** AS A **GENERATION**!! The next 2 paragraphs are exact quotes from Wikipedia on the subject of the **BABY BOOMER GENERATION**
Baby boomers are the demographic group born during the post�World War II baby boom, approximately between the years **1946 and 1964**. This includes people who are between **53 and 71** years old in 2017{57-75 years by 2021 and the Average Life Expectancy is also 75 years}, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The term "baby boomer" is also used in a cultural context, so it is difficult to achieve broad consensus of a precise date definition. Different people, organizations, and scholars have varying opinions on who is a baby boomer, both technically and culturally. Ascribing universal attributes to such a generation is difficult, and some believe it is inherently impossible, but many have attempted to determine their cultural similarities and historical impact, and the term has thus gained widespread popular usage.
As a group, **BABY BOOMERS** were the wealthiest, most active, and most physically fit **GENERATION** up to the era in which they arrived, and were amongst the first to grow up genuinely expecting the world to improve with time. They were also the generation that received peak levels of income; they could therefore reap the benefits of abundant levels of food, apparel, retirement programs, and sometimes even "midlife crisis" products. The increased consumerism for this generation has been regularly criticized as excessive.
Matthew 24:32-35: Jesus says, "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree. As soon as the twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is **NEAR**. Even so, when you see all these things {Which Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24:4-31}, you know that **IT IS **NEAR** right at the door. I tell you the truth, this {Baby Boomer?} **GENERATION** will certainly not pass away **UNTIL **ALL** THESE THINGS** {Which Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24:4-31} **HAVE HAPPENED**!. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away!"
After Jesus prophesied the complete destruction of the Temple the disciples asked Jesus in Matthew 24:3: "When will this {Temple destruction} happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"
It is interesting to note that the destruction of the Temple in the Olivet prophecies is only discussed by Jesus in Luke 21:20-24. Everything else Jesus prophesied before Matthew 24:32-35 above pertains to what will happen just before and during the 1260-day Great Tribulation In Matthew 24:4-31; which could possibly occur on **May 14th, 2018 to October 25th, 2021**; **AND** which would also be within the Baby Boomer **GENERATION**!!
Now the Preterist believes that **ALL THESE THINGS THAT HAPPENED** IN MATTHEW 24:4-31 including the 2nd coming of Jesus and the stars falling from the sky all took place before AD 70. The Preterist also believes that everything in Revelation including the 42 month reign by 666 over **EVERY NATION, TRIBE AND LANGUAGE** also took place before AD 70 and that **EVERYONE** in the world except the saints worshiped 666 before AD 70 as per Revelation 13:5-8!!
And so it is logical to assume that when Jesus said in Matthew 24:34 "**THIS GENERATION** will not pass away **UNTIL ALL THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED**" {In Matthew 24:3-31 including His 2nd Coming} that Jesus must be referring to a **FUTURE GENERATION** that must include the 1260-day Great Tribulation and His 2nd Coming!!
It is interesting to note that the **BABY BOOMER GENERATION** began just before the rebirth of Israel in 1946 and will end 75 years later in 2021 and therefore **THE BABY BOOMER GENERATION** would include the **70TH ANNIVERSARY** of the rebirth of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018** and 1260 days later on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021**

Am enclosing amazing Bible studies which show how many interesting events are taking place 70 7's from the **70TH** Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018** and 1260 days later on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021*and *THE DIVINE NUMBERS {*7*} AND {*4*} ARE MENTIONED {*74*} TIMES IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION!! **JESUS** ADDS UP TO {**74**} AND **CHRIST** ADDS UP TO {**77**} J=10 E = 5 S=19 U=21 S=19 & 10+5+19+21+19 = **74** C=3 H=8 R=18 I=9 S=19 T=20 and 3+8+18+9+19+20 = **77** There are also many other interesting words that add up to {*74*} In English (*74*) Gematria (*74*).

**INTERESTING **70 YEAR** TIME PERIODS IN BIBLE PROPHECY**!!
It is interesting to note that the Kings of Israel ruled 490 Years or **70 YEARS** times **7** years, which was immediately followed by a **70 YEAR** exile of the Jews, which was then immediately followed by the amazing **70 YEAR** times **7** year Prophecy in Daniel 9:24-27; which will end with the 2nd coming of Jesus and **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** on the Last Day Of the **70TH 7**!!
Also in the prophecy of the **70 YEARS** times **7** years it states in Daniel 7:26 "The people of the {Roman} ruler who will come will destroy the city {Jerusalem} and the Sanctuary." This prophecy was fulfilled and the Jews exiled again in AD **70** until the rebirth of Israel at midnight, May 14th, 1948!! The **70 YEAR** Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will take place at midnight on **MAY 14TH, 2018**??
Daniel 9:24-27: Seventy "sevens" {**70 YEARS** times 7 or 490 years} are decreed for your people and your holy city to **ANOINT THE MOST HOLY** {After 483 Years}, to **ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS** {After 486 1/2 years} and to bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** {On the Last Day of the Last 1260-day Tribulation or 490 total years}...From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus--See Isaiah 44:28} until the Anointed One comes {On October 5th AD 29}, there will be 62 7's and 7 7's {Or 69 7's or 483 years}... Then {3 1/2 years or 1278 days later} the Anointed One will be cut off...He will confirm a Covenant with many for one 7 {Or the Last 7 years}. In the middle of the 'seven' {After 3 1/2 years} He {The Anointed One} will put an **END TO SACRIFICES** and offering.{On April 3-5 AD 33} {And then after a long pause} He will set up an abomination that causes desolation {666} for 1260 days, until the decreed end is poured out on him at the 2nd Coming of Jesus {As per Rev 19:19,20 and 2 Thess 2:8} Which will bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** on the Last Day of the **70 YEARS** times **7** Prophecy!
Luke 3:21,22: When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended on Him {ANOINTING} in bodily form like a dove. And a Voice came from heaven, "You are My Son, whom I love, with You I am well pleased!"
Matthew 18::21,22: Peter asked Jesus, "How many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not **7** times, but **70** times **7 times**!" {See NIV footnote}
Jesus is called the Son of David 17 times and David lived exactly **70 YEARS** as per 2 Samuel 5:4.
Acts 1:6,7: The disciples asked Jesus, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said , "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority."
Luke 21:5,6,23,24: Some of His disciples were remarking about how the Temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, "As for what you see here, the time will come {In AD **70**} when not one stone will be left on another, every one of them will be thrown down!... There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations {In AD **70**}. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are **FULFILLED**!"
This prophecy was **FULFILLED** and The kingdom was restored to Israel at midnight on May 14th, AD 1948. It is interesting to note that **70 YEARS** after midnight, May 14th, 1948 will be at midnight,** MAY 14TH, 2018**!!???
On Deceber 23rd, 2016 Barak Hussein Obama abandoned America's commitment to Israel's security and the end of their democracy against Muslim aggression. In an act of cowardly venom Obama had the United States abstain from a United Nations resolution--and thereby effectively enact a United Nations resolution that completely condemns Israel and their settlements. A resolution that undertakes to render Israel indefensible. This very unfair resolution greatly increases the tension and chaos in the Middle East and gives the Muslim countries an excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel. !
On December 23, 2016, the **UNITED NATIONS** of the world severely condemned Israel and its settlements! December 23rd, 2016 is exactly 507 days before the **70TH YEAR** Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018**. 72 weeks or 72X7 would take up 504 days leaving 3 days or 72 hours. And so the time period from December 23rd, 2016 to **MAY 14TH, 2018** and the possible coming of **666** would be exactly **66+6** weeks plus **66+6** hours.
**INTERESTING SPECULATIVE QUESTION??
Will something interesting happen related to the **70 YEARS** times **7** Prophecy; take place exactly **70 YEARS** after the rebirth of Israel at midnight on **MAY 14TH, 2018**?? Such as the beginning of the Last half of the **70 YEARS** times **7**.{The 1260-day Great Tribulation} or the coming of God's two Israeli witnesses {Moses and Elijah} for their 1260-day testimony; or the signs that will take place shortly before the Great Tribulation??? This, of course, is just a very interesting **SPECULATION**!
Immediately after the Resurrection Day of the saints mentioned in I Thessalonians 4:16,17 we read in I Thessalonians 5:4,5: But **YOU, BROTHERS**, are not in darkness so that **THIS DAY** should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness!!
Revelation 3:3: Jesus says, "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But ***IF*** you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you!!"
When the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins or the 1260-day testimony of Moses and Elijah begins 1263 1/2 days before the Last Day; the saints will then know the exact Last Day when Jesus will come with **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** which will begin on the Last Day of the **70 YEARS** times 7 !!
Question? Why did Jesus reduce the Great Tribulation or last half of the Last 7 years in Daniel 9:27 from 3 1/2 years or 1278 days to 1260-days or 42 30-day months? Matthew 24:21-22: Jesus says, "For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now {See Daniel 12:1,2}--and never to be equaled again. If those {1278} days had not been **CUT SHORT**, no one would survive, bur for the sake of the elect those {1278 } days will be **SHORTENED**" {to 1260 days} And so the 1278-day Great Tribulation and reign of **666** will be shortened by 18 or **6+6+6** days.
By comparing Revelation 12:6 with Revelation 12:14 we know that 1260 days and time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time {180 days} is the exact same period of time. And by comparing Revelation 13:5 with Daniel 7:25 we know that 42 30-day months and time {12 months} times {24 months} and 1/2 a time {6 months} is the exact same period of time! And therefore 1260 days and 42 30-day months is the exact same period of time!
**COULD DONALD TRUMP BE PRESIDENT WHEN THE GREAT TRIBULATION BEGINS**??
As you know **70 7's** and **666** are very prominent numbers in Bible prophecy.
Someone just pointed out to me that Donald Trump was born on June 14th, 1946 at 10:54 AM which I checked out. Donald Trump became the most powerful world leader when he was inaugurated at Noon on January 20th, 2017. And so Donald Trump was exactly **70 YEARS** plus **7 MONTHS** plus **6** days plus **66** minutes old when he became the most powerful leader in the world!
Donald Trump became the most powerful leader in the world at noon, on January 20th, 2017; and the **70TH YEAR** anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will be at midnight, **MAY 14TH, 2018**. Noon, January 20th, 2017 until Noon, May 14th, 2018 is exactly 479 days and noon, May 14th, 2018 until midnight, **MAY 14TH, 2018** would take place on the **480th** day. **66** weeks or 66X7 equals 462 days; which leaves another 18 or **6+6+6** days!!! And so Donald Trump became the most powerful leader in the world exactly **66** weeks plus **6+6+6** days before the speculative coming off **666** who will then become the most powerful leader in the world.
On Deceber 23rd, 2016 Barak Hussein Obama abandoned America's commitment to Israel's security and the end of their democracy against Muslim aggression. In an act of cowardly venom Obama had the United States abstain from a United Nations resolution--and thereby effectively enact a United Nations resolution that completely condemns Israel and their settlements. A resolution that undertakes to render Israel indefensible. This very unfair resolution greatly increases the tension and chaos in the Middle East and gives the Muslim countries an excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel. !
December 23rd, 2016 is exactly 507 days before the **70TH YEAR** Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018**. 72 weeks or 72X7 would take up 504 days leaving 3 days or 72 hours. And so the time period from December 23rd, 2016 to **MAY 14TH, 2018** and the possible coming of **666** would be exactly **66+6** weeks plus **66+6** hours.
**DOES POPE FRANCIS QUALIFY TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666**??
As we have shown Pope Francis completely qualifies to be the future deceptive False Prophet of 666 from the evil city on 7 hills!!
If for example the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins on the **70TH YEAR** anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018**; it would then end 1260 days later at the 2nd Coming of Jesus on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021**.
Pope Francis was born at 9 PM on December 17th, 1936 in Buenos Aries Argentina which is 5 hours less than Jerusalem Bible time which would be 2 AM, December 18th, 1936. What is the interesting time period between 2 AM , December 18th, 1936 to 2 AM, **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021**??
The time period from December 18th, 1936 to December 18th, 2020 is exactly 84 years or **77 + 7** years or **70* + *7* + *7** years. And the time period between December 18th 2020 and **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021** is exactly *315* days. **7** 30-day Bible months would be *210* days leaving *105* days. 14 weeks or **7 + 7** weeks would take *98* days leaving **7** days!
And so the total time period from the birth of Pope Francis at 2 AM, December 18th,1936, Jerusalem time; to 2 AM, October 25th, 2021 would be **70* + *7* + *7** years plus **7** months Plus **7 + 7** weeks plus **7** days before the Last Day on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 at the possible 2nd Coming of Jesus, who holds the **7** spirits of God and the **7** angels {Read Rev 1:20 & 3:1 & 5:6b}, when the **7** angel will sound the **7**th and last trumpet!!{Read Rev 11:15-18 & I Cor 15:51,52}
**DOES BIBLE CHRONOLOGY HAVE A KEY TO THE LAST DAY AND THE 2ND COMING OF JESUS**??
As we have shown the time period from Solomon starting the Temple to the Anointing of Jesus would have been 405 years + 158 days + **70** years + 483 years for a total of 958 years and 158 days. And the time period from the birth of Adam to Solomon starting the Temple would have been 2930 years + 32 days plus 958 years + 158 days for a grand total of **3,888 years plus 190 days**
Let us suppose that the 1260-day Great Tribulation will begin on the **70-YEAR** Anniversary of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018** and end 1260 days later at the 2nd Coming of Jesus on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021**.
The time period from the Anointing of Jesus or the 1st Coming of Jesus on October 5th, AD 29 to the speculative 2nd Coming of Jesus on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021** would be exactly 1992 years plus 20 days. And so the time period from the birth of Adam to the 2nd Coming of Jesus would be 1,992 years + 20 days plus 3,888 years + 190 days for a grand total of **5,880 years plus 210 days**. *7* times 840 years is 5,880 years and so **7** times **770 + 70** years is also 5,880 years. And 210 days is also **70 + *70* + 70** days.
And so the time period from the birth of Adam to the possible 2nd Coming of Jesus would be exactly **7** times **770 + 70** years plus **70 + *70* + 70** days!!
The idea that something may happen related to the End-Times on the **70** YEAR ANNIVERSARY** of the birth of Israel on **MAY 14TH, 2018** is, of course, just an interesting **SPECULATION**!
THE DIVINE NUMBERS {*7*} AND {*4*} ARE MENTIONED {*74*} TIMES IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION!! **JESUS** ADDS UP TO {**74**} AND **CHRIST** ADDS UP TO {**77**} J=10 E = 5 S=19 U=21 S=19 & 10+5+19+21+19 = **74** C=3 H=8 R=18 I=9 S=19 T=20 and 3+8+18+9+19+20 = **77**
Revelation 1:20: Jesus says, "The mystery of the **7** stars that you saw in My right hand and of the **7** golden lamp stands is this: The **7** stars are the angels of the **7** churches, and the **7** lamp stands are the **7** churches!" Revelation 3:1: Jesus says, "These are the words of Him who holds the **7** spirits of God and the **7** stars!" Revelation 5:6: He {Jesus} had **7** horns and **7** eyes which are the **7** spirits of God sent out into all the earth!"
The life and teachings of Jesus are recorded in the {*FOUR*} Gospels. Jesus is the Lion of the tribe of Judah {Rev 5:5} who was the {*FOURTH*} son of Israel. Jesus is the {*FOURTH*} King of *ALL* Israel. There was King Saul, King David, King Solomon and the {*FOURTH*} was and is King Jesus. The **KING** of kings as per Revelation 17:14!
God made {*FOUR*} covenants with man after his creation; [*1*] God�s Covenant with Noah after the flood in Genesis 9:1-17. {*2*} God�s Covenant with Abraham as per Genesis 17:2-21. {*3*} God�s Covenant with Moses as per Exodus 34:10-28 {**4**} Heb 12:24: �Jesus the Mediator of a NEW COVENANT.� Heb 8:6: �The COVENANT of which Jesus is Mediator is superior to the old one, and is founded on better promises.� And so Jesus is the Mediator of the {*FOURTH*}, LAST AND BEST COVENANT!!.
As we have shown Herod�s Temple was the 3rd Temple which took 46 years {See John 2:20} to build. Ephesians 2:19b-22: "You are members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Jesus Christ Himself as the chief cornerstone {Of the {*FOURTH* and LAST ETERNAL TEMPLE}. In Him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a HOLY TEMPLE in the Lord. And in Him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by His Spirit. 2 Cor 6:16 "For WE are the TEMPLE of the Living God.�{Who does not live in temples made by hands as per Acts 17:24}. All the followers of Jesus are �living stones� of the {*FOURTH*} and LAST ETERNAL TEMPLE as per I Peter 2:5.
When Jesus comes again He will gather His elect from the {*FOUR*} winds {Matt 24:31 & Mark 13:27} and from the {*FOUR*} corners of the earth {Rev 7:1 & Rev 20:8}. Jesus will then take them to their eternal home in the {*FOUR*}-square New Jerusalem with its {*FOUR*} walls. God the FATHER and the *7* SPIRITS* of God are both mentioned exactly {**4**} times in Revelation.
The 1260-day Tribulation will begin when the {*FOUR*} Living Beings, who surround God�s throne in Heaven; orders the {*FOUR*} horsemen of the Apocalypse to �COME�. The 1260-day Tribulation is exactly 3 years and 164 days which would be {*4*} Bible months {4X30} plus {*44*} days of the {*FOURTH*} year of the Tribulation.
Jesus is mentioned 14 or {**7+7**} times in Revelation. Jesus walks among the {*7*} lamp stands which are the {*7*} churches and holds {*7*} stars in His right hand who are the {*7*} angels of the {*7*} churches.{See Rev 1:20} Only Jesus can open the scroll of the End-Times which has {*7*} seals and Jesus will open all {*7*} seals. {See Rev 5:5} Jesus has {*7*} horns and {*7*} eyes which are the {*7*} spirits of God sent out into all the earth.{See Rev 5:6} There are {*7*} spirits of God and {*7*} mighty angels who stand before the throne of God. {See Rev 1:4 & Rev 8:12} These {*7*} mighty angels will be given {*7*} golden bowls of plagues and {*7*} trumpets.
JESUS WILL COME AGAIN WHEN THE {*7TH*} ANGEL SOUNDS THE {*7th*} AND LAST TRUMPET, and then there will be a {*7TH*} DAY REST {Heb 4:9} for the people of God. Rev 11:15a, 18: �The {*7TH*} angel sounded his trumpet� the time has come for judging the dead and for rewarding your servants the prophets and saints.� I Cor 15:51: �Listen, I tell you a MYSTERY! We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed�in a flash, in a twinkling of an eye, at the last {Or *7TH*} trumpet.� Rev 10:7: �But in the days when the {*7TH*} angel is about to sound his trumpet, the MYSTERY {See I Cor 15:51 above} of God will be accomplished.
According to the genealogy of **CHRIST {**77**} in Luke 3:23-38 Jesus was the 76th son of Adam and the {**77TH**} Son from God! **CHRIST {**77 **} commanded us to forgive our brother not 7 times but {*77*} times. {See Matt 18:22}
The Divine numbers {*7*} and {*4*} are mentioned {*74*} times in the book of Revelation. According to Wikipedia �Gematria� is a device to reveal a deeper, alternative, or hidden meaning in words, names or phrases and was used in Revelation 13:18 where the name of the beast adds up to {*666*}. Jesus was crucified for {*6*} hours on the {*6th*} day of the Bible week as per Mark 15:25,33,34,42,43. In the first century when the New Testament was written; the majority of believers were Jewish. Nero Caesar adds up {666} in Hebrew Gematria.
Jesus Christ, or Jesus the Messiah, or �Yehshua Hamesheach� adds up to *749*{Or **7 + 7X7**} in Jewish {*74*] Gematria {*74*}. And the {*6*TH} Caesar who ordered the death of Paul and Peter in AD **66** Nero Caesar who will come up from the Abyss {*66*] adds up to exactly **666** in Jewish {*74} Gematria {*74*}!!
When I was a missionary in Israel I studied the Hebrew language. One of the first things that you learn when you study the OT Ancient Hebrew language {Which is also the language of Israel today!} is that the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet ALSO represent 22 numbers! When you read Psalm 119 you will note that the 176 sentences are divided into 22 sections; each section with 8 sentences or verses praising the Word of God. These 22 sections are each headed by one of the letters in the Hebrew alphabet in the exact same order as shown below. The ancient Hebrew language {Which is exactly the same as the modern Hebrew language} frequently used the letters of their alphabet to designate numbers in the OT as follows: ALEPH=1. BETH=2. GIMEL=3. DALET=4. HE=5. VAV=6. ZAYIN=7. CHETH=8. TETH=9. YODH=10. KAPH=20. LAMED=30. MEM=40. NUN=50. SAMEKH=60. AYIN=70. PE=80. TSADHE=90. KOPH=100. RESH=200. SHIN=300. TAV=400.
NOTE: Most vowel sounds except "O" {VAV} are not used as letters in Hebrew. These vowel sounds are designated by dots and dashes under their *PRECEDING* consonants. In Hebrew "N" is added on the end of all foreign names ending in "O". Therefore, the foreign name of Nero would be "NERON" in Hebrew. The name Nero Caesar would be pronounced Neron Kaysar in Hebrew. The "E" in Neron and the 2 "A" sounds in Kaysar {There is no "C" in Hebrew} are designated by dots and dashes under their preceding consonants and therefore are not letters in the 22 letter Hebrew alphabet, and so have no numerical value.
Neron in Hebrew would use 4 letters with numerical value: N-R-O-N and Kaysar in Hebrew would use 3 letters with numerical value: K-S-R. There would be a dot under the first N to show the "E" sound in NEron There would also be 2 dots under the "K" to show the "AY" sound in KAYsar and a dash under the "S" to show the "AH" sound in KaySAHr. The 4 letters with numerical value in NERON would be {SEE TABLE ABOVE} N = NUN = 50; R = RESH = 200; O = VAV = 6; and N = NUN = 50 and 50+20+6+50 equals 306. The 3 letters with numerical value in "KAYSAR would be K = KOPH = 100; S = SAMEKH = 60; and R = RESH =200 and 100+60+200 equals 360.
And so the numerical value of Nero in Hebrew is 306 and the numerical value of Caesar in Hebrew is 360, and therefore the numerical value of Nero Caesar is 306+360 or exactly *666*!
And in English {*74*} Gematria {*74*} Abyss {*66*} adds up to exactly {**66**} A=1 B=2 Y=25 S=19 S=19 and 1+2+25+19+19= {**66**}
The Beast [*666*} who is mentioned 36 {*6X6*} times in Revelation will come up from the Abyss {**66**] or Hell as per Revelation 11:7 and Revelation 17:8.
Revelation 11:7: Now when they {Moses & Elijah} have finished their {1260-day} testimony, the Beast {*666*} that comes up from the Abyss {*66*} will attack them.
Revelation 17:8: The Beast {*666}, which you saw once was {alive--AD 36 to AD 67}, now {In AD 96} is not {alive} and will come up out of the Abyss {*66*] and will go to his destruction.
However, at the present time the majority of true Christian believers {Not including Roman Catholics} speak English {USA, Canada, Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand} The vast majority of Evangelical missionaries come from these English speaking countries. There are now over 2 billion people who speak **ENGLISH** {**74**} out of the 7 billion people in the world.
So it is not surprising that there are many interesting words that add up to {*74*} and {*77*} in English {*74*} Gematria {*74*}. For example, Jesus adds up to {*74*} and Christ adds up to {*77*} in English Gematria {A =1 B=2 S=19 etc.} J = 10, E = 5, S = 19, U = 21, S = 19 and 10+5+19+21+19 = {*74*} . C = 3, H = 8, R = 18, I = 9, S= 19 T = 20 and 3+8+18+9+19+20 = {*77*}.
There are also many other interesting words that add up to {*74*} In English (*74*) Gematria (*74*). Words such as English (*74*), Gematria (*74*), Messiah {*74*), Gospel (*74*), Disciple {*74*}, Fruit {*74*}, Parables (*74*), Preacher (*74*), God Son (*74*), Ruler (*74*), The King (*74*) Cross (*74*), Clouds (*74*), Heavens (*74*), Joshua (*74*) is the *Jewish* (*74*) name for **JESUS** (*74*).
On the Last Day *JESUS* (*74*) will come on the *CLOUDS* (*74*) of the *HEAVENS* (*74*). {See Matthew 24:30,31 & I Thess 4:17} *JESUS (*74*) is the *RULER* (*74*) of the kings of the earth and the RULER (*74*) of God�s creation as per Rev 1:5 & Rev 3:14. *DISCIPLE* {*74*} and *THE KING* {*74*} of kings also adds up to {*74*} John 15:16: **JESUS** {*74*} says, �I chose you and appointed you to go and bear *FRUIT* {*74*}--*FRUIT* {*74*} that will last.� {See *FRUIT* in Matt 21:43; John 15:5,8; Gal 5:22; Phil 1:11; Col 1:6,10; Heb 13:15; Rev 22:2}
When Christ comes again the *STARS* {*77*} will fall from the sky {Matt 24:29} and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the *STARS* {*77*} for ever and ever. {Dan 12:3} *CHRIST* {*77*] will come with *POWER* (*77*) and great *GLORY* (*77*) as per Matthew 24:30. Revelation 1:6: �To him be *POWER* (*77*) and* GLORY* (*77*) for ever and ever!� C = 3, H = 8, R = 18, I = 9, S = 19, T = 20 & 3+8+18+9+19+20 = {*77*}. P = 16. O = 15, W = 23. E = 5, R = 18 & 16=15=23=5=18 = {*77*}. G = 7, L = 12, O = 15, R = 18, Y =25 & 7+12+15+18+25 = *77*.
*READ* {28 or *7X4*} *BIBLES* {49 or *7X7*} adds up to *READ BIBLES* {*77*}, *OBEY BIBLE* {*77*} and *FATHER'S* {*77*} add up to (*77*) Speak the Truth *IN LOVE* {*77*} {Eph 4:15} Do everything *IN LOVE* {*77*} {I Cor 16:14}
*ABRAHAM SEED* {**77**} and **CHRIST** both add up to {**77**} Galatians 3:16: �The promises were spoken to *ABRAHAM* {**44**} and to His **SEED** {**33**}, The Scripture does not say �and to seeds,� meaning many people, but �and to your SEED, meaning one person, who is **CHRIST ** {**77**}!!
{*77*} plus {*74*} adds up to {*151*}. Also adding up to {*151*} is *JESUS CHRIST*, *HOLY SPIRIT*, *JESUS IS LORD*, * BIBLE REVELATION*, *CHRIST MESSIAH*, *CHRIST GOSPEL*, *CHRIST DISCIPLE* and **CHRIST CROSS*!!
{*74*} plus {*47*} adds up to {*121*}. Also adding up to {*121*} is *REVELATION*, *SECOND COMING*, *JESUS BLOOD*, *JESUS SAVE* and *OBEY JESUS*!!

Rev 22:12: Jesus {*74*} says, �Behold, I am coming soon! My *REWARD* {49 or *7X7*} is with me.� Matt 16:27: �For the Son of Man is going to come in his *FATHER'S* {77} *GLORY* {*77*} and then He will REWARD {49 or *7X7*} everyone according to what he has done.� Eph 6:8: �You know that the *LORD* {49 or *7X7*} will *REWARD* {49 or *7X7*} everyone for whatever good he does.�
*LORD* {49 or *7X7*} is mentioned 21 or {**7 + 7 + 7**} times in Revelation. Jesus is mentioned 14 or {**7 + 7**} times in Revelation, and **CHRIST**{*77*} is mentioned {**7**} times in Revelation.
On the Last Day Jesus (*74*) Christ (*77*), the Gospel (*74*) Preacher (*74*), the Jewish (*74*) Messiah (*74*), The King (*74*) and Ruler (*74*) of God�s creation will come on the Clouds (*74*) of the Heavens (*74*) with the Father's {*77*} Power (*77*) and great Glory (*77*) when the {*7TH*} angel sounds the {*7TH*} and Last Trumpet and will gather his living stones of the {*4TH*} and Last Temple from the {*4*} winds and the {*4*} corners of the earth and will then take them to their eternal home in the {*4*} Square New Jerusalem to enjoy forever the eternal {*7TH*} Day Rest for the people of God {Heb 4:9} according to the {*4TH*} and last Covenant!

**AMAZING TREASURES IN THE BOOK OF ROMANS**
Romans 1:17: For in the Gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is **BY FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST**!!
Romans 3:21-25: But now a righteousness from God, **APART FROM THE LAW**, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes **THROUGH FAITH** in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by **HIS GRACE** through the **REDEMPTION** that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Him as a **SACRIFICE OF ATONEMENT**, **THROUGH FAITH IN HIS BLOOD**!!
Romans 4:6-8: David says the same thing when he speaks of the righteousness of the man whom God credits righteousness **APART FROM WORKS**. "Blessed are they whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whom sin the Lord **WILL NEVER COUNT AGAINST HIM**!"{David was inspired to write this in Psalm 32:1,2}
Romans 8:28-30: And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been **CALLED** according to His purpose. For those God **FOREKNEW** He also **PREDESTINED** to be conformed to the likeness of His Son... And those He **PREDESTINED**, He also **CALLED**, those He called, He also **JUSTIFIED**, those He justified, He also **GLORIFIED**!!
Romans 8:38,39: In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels or demons, neither the present or the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation , **WILL BE ABLE TO SEPARATE US** from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord!!
Romans 12:3-7: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith **GOD HAS GIVEN YOU**! Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have **DIFFERENT GIFTS**, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving. let him serve, if it is encouraging, let him encourage, if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership , let him govern diligently, if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully!!
Romans 12:17-21: Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, **LIVE AT PEACE WITH EVERYONE**. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is Mine to avenge, I will repay," says the Lord. On the contrary: If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this you will heap burning coals on his head. Do not be overcome by evil, but **OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD**!!

**AMAZING TREASURES IN THE BOOK OF GALATIANS**
Galatians 2:15,16: We who are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but **BY FAITH** in Jesus Christ that we may be **JUSTIFIED BY FAITH** in Christ and **NOT** by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified!!
Galatians 2:18-21: I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me! The life I live in the body, I live by **FAITH** in the Son of God, who loved me and **GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME**!! I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!!
Galatians 3:23-25: Before faith came, we were held prisoners by the law, locked up until **FAITH** should be revealed. So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be **JUSTIFIED BY FAITH**!! Now that **FAITH** has come, we are **NO LONGER UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF THE LAW**!!
Galatians 5:5,6: By **FAITH** we eagerly await through the Spirit, the righteousness for which we hope. For in Christ neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The **ONLY THING** that counts is **FAITH** expressing itself through **LOVE**!!
Galatians 5:22-25: But the fruit of the Spirit is *LOVE**, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit!!
Galatians 6:14,15: May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world was crucified to me. and I to the world. Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what counts is a **NEW CREATION**!! {Which results in **FAITH** expressing itself through**LOVE**}

I Peter 1:18,19: For you know that was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were **REDEEMED** from the empty way of life handed down to you by your forefathers, but with the **PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST**, Lamb without blemish or defect!!
! Peter 1:22-25: Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere **LOVE** for your brothers, **LOVE** one another deeply from the heart. For you have bee **BORN AGAIN**, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring **WORD OF GOD**!! For all men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the **WORD OF THE LORD STANDS FOREVER**!! And this is the **WORD** that was preached to you!!
I Peter 2:24,25: He Himself **BORE OUR SINS** in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness, by **HIS WOUNDS** we are healed{See Isaiah 53:5,6}!! For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls!!
I Peter 3:18 For Christ **DIED FOR SINS ONCE FOR ALL**, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God!!
I Peter 4:8-11: Above all, **LOVE** each other deeply, because **LOVE** covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each one should us whatever **GIFT** he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very **WORDS OF GOD**. If anyone serves, he should do it with strength God provides. so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen!!
2 Peter 1:5-11: Make every effort to add to your *FAITH** {A free gift!} goodness, and to goodness, knowledge, and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, **LOVE**. For if you possess these qualities in **INCREASING MEASURE**, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten he has been cleansed of his past sins! Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fall, and you will receive a **RICH WELCOME** into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!!
2 Peter 3:10-13: But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will **DISAPPEAR** with a roar, elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be burned up! {NIV} Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to the day of God. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with His promise **WE** are looking forward to a **NEW HEAVENS and a **NEW EARTH, the home of righteousness!! {Read Revelation 21:1-5!}

**AMAZING TREASURES IN EPHESIANS**!!
Ephesians 1:3-8; 11: Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with **EVERY** spiritual blessing in Christ. For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and **BLAMELESS** in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will--to the praise of His **GLORIOUS GRACE**, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. In Him we have **REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD**, the forgiveness of sins. in accordance the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.....In Him we were also **CHOSEN** having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of His will!!
Ephesians 1:19-23: That power is like the working of His mighty strength, which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the **PRESENT AGE** but also in the one to come. And God paced **ALL THINGS** under His feet and appointed Him {Not a pope}to be the ***HEAD*** over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills everything in every way!!
Ephesians 2:4-10: Because of His great love for us, God,, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions--it is **BY GRACE** you have been saved! And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might show the incomparble riches of His grace, expressed in His kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is **BY GRACE** you have been saved, through faith-- and this **NOT FROM YOURSELVES, it is the **GIFT** of God--**NOT BY WORKS**, so that no one can boast. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do!
Ephesians 6:7,8: Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men, because you know that the Lord will **REWARD** everyone for whatever good he does!
SALVATION IS 100 PERCENT FREE AND REWARDS ARE 100 PERCENT EARNED!!
Ephesians 3:16-19: I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established **IN LOVE**, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the **LOVE OF CHRIST**, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God!.
Ephesians 4:7; 11-16; But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.... It is **HE** {**NOT** the Church} who gives some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ, may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the **TRUTH IN LOVE**, we will in all things grow up into Him who is the **HEAD**, that is Christ {**NOT** a pope!} From Him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work!!
**AMAZING TRESURES IN THE BOOK OF JAMES**
James 1:17,18; 22-25: Every good and perfect gift is **FROM ABOVE**, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. He chose to give us birth through the **WORD OF TRUTH**... Do not merely listen to the **WORD**, and so deceive yourselves. **DO WHAT IT SAYS**. Anyone who listens to the **WORD** but does not do what it says, is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But the man **LOOKS INTENTLY** into the perfect word that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he heard, but doing it--he will be blessed in what he does!
James 2: 20-22: Do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his **FAITH** and his **ACTIONS** were **WORKING TOGETHER**, and his faith was made complete by what he did!
James 3:17,18: The wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure, then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness!
James 4:6-10: God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble! Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and He will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.... Humble yourselves before the Lord, and **HE WILL LIFT YOU UP**!!
James 4:13-17: Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow... Instead you ought to say, "If it is the **LORD'S WILL** we will live and do this or that." As it is , you boast and brag. All such boasting is evil. Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins!!
And so God's faithful chosen saints should **READ GOD'S WORD DAILY** {Acts 17:11} and then **DO WHAT IT SAYS**(James 1:22}
**Salvation is 100% Free but Heavenly **REWARDS** are 100% earned**

WILL THE GREAT TRIBULATION AND THE REIGN OF 666, THE BEAST OR THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION LAST EXACTLY 1260 DAYS OR 42 {30-DAY} MONTHS AND NOT 7 YEARS???
*Note by comparing Revelation 12:6 and Revelation 12:14 we can know that time {360 days}, times {720 days}, and 1/2 a time {180 days} and 1260 days are the exact same period of time. 42 {30-day} months and 1260 days or time {12 months}, times {24 months} and 1/2 a time {6 months} are also the exact same period of time.
*{#1}** Daniel 12:1b,2,7b: �There will be a time of distress {The Great Tribulation} such as not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time {The Last Day} your people--*EVERYONE* whose name is found written in the book {Both OT & NT Saints}�will be delivered. Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt�It will be for a time. times and half a time {Which is also 1260 days as per Rev 12:6,14, or 42 {30-day} months as per Rev 13:5} *ALL* these things will be *COMPLETED.
**{#2}** Rev 13:5,7: The beast will be given a mouth to utter blasphemies and to exercise his authority for 42 months �He will be given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. COMPARE WITH:
**{#3}**Dan 7:25: �He will speak against the Most High and oppress His saints. The saints will be handed over to him for time {12 months}, times {24 months} and 1/2 a time {6 months} {Or 42 months}
** A SEVEN-YEAR GREAT TRIBULATION OR SEVEN-YEAR RULE OF 666 IS NEVER MENTIONED IN GOD'S WORD!!
Daniel 9:24: 70 7's are decreed... to **ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS**{After 69 1/2 7's}, **TO BRING IN EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS**{After 70 7's} and **TO ANOINT THE MOST HOLY**{After 69 7's or 483 years!!} The last half of the Last 7 would be the 1260-day Great Tribulation just before the glorious Coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on the Last Day of the 70th 7!!
Luke 3:22,23: When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on Him {*ANOINTED*} like a dove And a Voice came from heaven: "This is My Son, whom I love, with You I am well pleased!"
Daniel 9:25: Know and understand this. From the issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed one, the Ruler, comes, there will be 62 7's and 7 7's {Or 69 7's which would be 483 years}
And so the first half of the last 7 was already COMPLETED when Jesus put and END to all sacrifices for sin;1260 days after His Anointing which occurred after 69 7's. When the Anointed One came 69 7's or 483 years were 100% completed [See Dan 9:25 above} leaving just one 7 in the future after the Anointed One comes and then came a 1260-day New Covenant which ended when Jesus put an end to all sacrifices for sin.
It is interesting to note that in Daniel 9:25 it states that 70 7's are decreed *TO ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS* and therefore those who believe in a 7 year future Tribulation DO NO INCLUDE CHRIST'S ATONEMENT FOR SINS IN THE 70 '7s OR 490 YEAR PROPHECY!! since the coming of the Anointed One to earth took place on the last day of the 69 7's!!! or after 483 years!!
Those who wrongly believe in a future 7-year Tribulation; must wrongly believe that the ATONEMENT FOR WICKEDNESS by Jesus about 3 1/2 years after His Anointing can not be included in the 70 7's Prophecy.!!!
Hebrews 10:8-10: First He said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor were You pleased with them," although the law required them to be made. Then He said, "Here I am, I have come to do Your will." He sets aside the first **TO ESTABLISH THE SECOND**. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ **ONCE FOR ALL**!!
Hebrews 9:22; 26-28: The law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood **THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS**.... But now He has appeared **ONCE FOR ALL** at the end of the ages to do away with sin **BY THE SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF**!! Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people {In the middle of the last 7} He will appear a second time,{On the Last day of the 70th 7} not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him!!
Daniel 9:26,27: The Anointed One will be cut off... He will confirm a Covenant for one seven. In the middle of the seven He will put and an end to sacrifice and offering{And then after a long pause}He will set up an Abomination of Desolation, {For 42 months} until the end that is decreed is poured out on him. { See Rev 19:20 & 2 Thess 2:8}
What then, is the explanation of Matthew 24:15,16??
Matthew 24:15,16: So when you see standing in the **HOLY PLACE** 'the abomination that causes of desolation spoken of through the prophet Daniel {See Daniel 9:27b and Daniel 7:25} let the reader understand--then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
3 1/2 days before the Last Day of the Great Tribulation God will allow the Abomination of Desolation to kill His 2 witnesses {Moses & Elijah} in the *HOLY PLACE** right where our Lord Jesus was crucified in Judea; and then those saints in Judea should flee to the mountains.
Revelation 11:7-11,15,18: Now when they have finished their {1260-day} testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss {Or the Abomination of Desolation} will attack them, and overpower and kill them. {Then let those saints in Judea flee to the mountains as per Matt 24:16} Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city...where their Lord was crucified {The New Holy Place} For three and a half days men from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies {On Worldwide TV} and refuse them burial... But after three and half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet ... Then they heard a loud Voice from heaven saying to them , "COME UP HERE" And the went up to heaven in a cloud...The seventh angel sounded his trumpet , and there were loud voices in heaven, which said, "The kingdoms of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign for ever and ever...The time has come for judging the dead and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints... and for destroying those who destroy the earth!!"
So then, how do you explain 2 Thessalonians 2:4??
2 Thessalonians 2:4: He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple, proclaiming himself to be God.
Revelation 13:15-17: He {the False Prophet of 666} will be given power to give breath to the image of the first beast {666} so that it could speak! and cause all who refused **TO WORSHIP** the image to be killed. He also forced everyone to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the **NAME OF THE BEAST** or the number of his name.{666}
And when 666 kills God's powerful 2 witnesses in the new **HOLY PLACE** right where their Lord was crucified; he will claim to be God!
666 will also be able to persecute and kill God's saints who are the new **TEMPLE OF GOD**!!
I Corinthians 3:16,17: Don't you know that you yourselves are **GOD'S TEMPLE* and that God's Spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and **YOU ARE THAT TEMPLE!!
2 Corinthians 6:16: For **WE ARE THE TEMPLE** of the living God!!
Revelation 11:1: "Go and measure the **TEMPLE OF GOD** and count the worshipers there!"
Revelation 7:14,15: These are they who have come out of the Great Tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the **LAMB**. Therefore, they are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His Temple!!
**DOES A JEWISH TEMPLE WITH BIBLICAL SPECIFICATIONS HAVE TO BE REBUILT??
Some End-Time Groups who wrongly interpret Daniel 9:27a, and who believe in a 7-year Tribulation, {Starting with a New Jewish Temple} are now spreading false rumors that religious Jews are now building a Temple or are planning to tear down the Muslim Dome of the Rock in order to rebuild a Jewish Temple to Biblical specifications and will then REINSTITUTE animal sacrifices??? However there are several big problems with this scenario: All 21 Arab Muslim nations including Pakistan which has many nuclear bombs would then immediately declare an all-out Holy War on Israel, and the Israeli government fully understands this. I know this for I was a missionary in Israel. A Jewish Temple built to Biblical specifications would then take at least 7 years to build during this continuous war with the 21 Muslim nations. Most of these same End-Time Groups also teach that a pre-trib rapture could occur TODAY {Not at least 7 years from today} which of course makes the ridiculous *IMMINENT* pre-trib belief {That Jesus could come TODAY} a big joke.
Now all those who believe in a 7-year Tribulation only because of the wrong interpretation of Daniel 9:27a also believe that immediately following a CONCEALED pre-trib rapture of the Church saints that the Anti-Christ will make a Covenant with Israel; allowing the Jews to make animal sacrifices in a Jewish Temple built to Biblical specifications. They believe that at the end of 3 1/2 years in the middle of the 7 years the antichrist will put an end to all animal sacrifices in this Jewish Temple. However, for over 1,000 years religious Jews have believed that when their Messiah comes He will bring with him the New Jewish Temple and the required Ark of the Covenant. And then the Messiah will re-establish the Levitical priesthood; who will then offer animal sacrifices according to OT Law.
For according to OT Law {See Numbers 3:5-10} all Jewish Priests must prove that they are direct descendants of Levi and these Levitical genealogies were completely destroyed when the last Jewish Temple was destroyed in AD 70. Therefore, no Scriptural OT animal sacrifices could possibly occur before then; since no Jew can now prove that he is a Levite!! And so if you are waiting for this Jewish Temple to be built to Biblical specifications by Jews who will then offer animal sacrifices; you are going to have to wait until this bogus Jewish messiah comes. Please do not hold your breath until this time!
Did Herod the Great completely destroy the 2nd Temple including its foundations around 17 BC?? The following is a quote from "Antiquities of the Jews" by Josephus, Page 334, Para 1 & 3: "And now Herod, in the 18th year of his reign undertook a very great work, that is, to build of himself the temple of God and make it LARGER in compass, and to raise it to a most significant altitude, as esteeming it to be the most glorious of all his actions and this would be sufficient for an everlasting memorial to him....so Herod TOOK AWAY THE OLD FOUNDATIONS AND LAID OTHERS, and erected the temple upon them. Herod's 3rd Temple was 100 cubits {150 feet} long." {The first two Jewish temples were both 60 cubits {90 feet} long as per 2 Chronicles 3:3 & Ezra 6:3.} So then Herod's Temple was the 3RD TEMPLE which according to John 2:20 took "46 years to build"
John 2:19-21: Jesus said, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in 3 days!" The Jews replied, "It has taken 46 years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in 3 days?" But the Temple He had spoken of was His body!
There are some who believe that a Jewish Temple built to Biblical specifications will appear during the End-Times and is suggested in Revelation 11:1. The TEMPLE IN HEAVEN is mentioned 12 times in Revelation where worshipers are present: Rev 3:12;7:15;11:19(2X);14:15,17;15:5,6,8(2x); & Rev 16:1,17. The only other time that a temple is mentioned in Revelation is in Revelation 11:1; where worshipers are present; so this could also be a reference to the TEMPLE IN HEAVEN. Let us compare Rev 11:1 with Rev 7:15 and Rev 8:3-5: Revelation 11:1: I was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told, "Go and measure the TEMPLE OF GOD and the ALTAR, and count the worshipers there." Rev 7:15:"They {martyrs as per Rev 7:9-14} are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in HIS TEMPLE." Rev 8:3-5: Another angel, who had a golden censor, came and stood at the ALTAR. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden ALTAR before the throne. The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of the saints, went up before God from the angel's hand.
I Corinthians:16,17: Don't you know that **YOU YOURSELVES** are **GOD"S TEMPLE** and that God's Spirit lives in you. If anyone destroys God's temple God will destroy him {Like 666 in Revelatioin}, for God's temple is sacred, and **YOU ARE THAT TEMPLE**!!
So Revelation 11:1 refers to the Temple of God in heaven which includes Jesus and the believers in heaven and Revelation tells of the outer court of the temple on earth or the believers who are alive on earth who 666 will trample on for 42 months.
Revelation 11:1,2: I was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told,"Go and measure temple of God and the altar, and count the worshipers there. But exclude the outer court, do not measure it, because it has been given over to the Gentiles {Ruled by 666-See Rev 13:5,7 & 2 Thess 2:4} They will trample on the holy *CITY* for 42 months. "Revelation 3:12: Jesus says, "I will write on him the *CITY* of my God, The New Jerusalem! Hebrews 12:22: But *YOU HAVE COME* to the Heavenly Jerusalem, the *CITY* of the living God!
Ephesians 2:19b-22: "You are members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Jesus Christ Himself as the Chief Cornerstone {Of the 4th and LAST TEMPLE}. In Him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a HOLY TEMPLE in the Lord. And in Him you too are being built {Living Stones-1 Pet 2:5} together to become a dwelling in which God lives by His Spirit. 2 Cor 6:16 "For *WE are the TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD!"{See Revelation 11:1 above!!} Acts 17:24: The God who made the world and everything in it ...**DOES NOT LIVE IN TEMPLES BUILT BY HANDS**. The �outer court� of the TEMPLE OF GOD in Rev 11:2 would be the saints on earth who are also the TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD!!
It is interesting to note that there are **TWO** Greek words translated **TEMPLE** in the NT: The Greek word *HIERON* is used 71 times and always refers to the physical temple in Jerusalem that took 46 years to build and was destroyed in AD 70. And then there is the Greek word **NAOS** which sometimes refers to the physical temple in Jerusalem but most often refers to the Temple in Heaven mentioned 12 times in Revelation or **GOD'S TEMPLE ** in 2 Thessalonians 2:4 or "WE are the **TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD" in 2 Corinthians 6:16 and I Corinthians 16:17!
Matthew 24:15,16: Jesus says, So when you see standing in the **HOLY PLACE**, the abomination that causes desolation {See also Mark 13:14}, spoken of through the prophet Daniel {666 in Daniel 7:25 and Daniel 9:27b}--let the reader understand-- then let those in Judea flee to the mountains.
Revelation 11:7,8: Now when they {Moses and Elijah} have finished their {1260-day} testimony, the Beast {666} that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and over power and kill them, and overpower and kill them. Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt, **WHERE ALSO THEIR LORD WAS CRUCIFIED**{The new **HOLY PLACE**}
2 Thessalonians 2:4: He {666} will opposeand will exalt himself over everything that is called God, so that he sets himself up in **GOD'S TEMPLE** {The new **HOLY PLACE**}, proclaiming himself to be God. { Certainly **GOD'S TEMPLE** is not a Satanic Jewish temple in the end times with Satanic animal sacrifices for sin}
And when God's saints see 666 standing in the **HOLY PLACE** {in the street next to Golgotha or Skull Hill} where he will kill Moses and Elijah they must flee to the mountains. I was a missionary in Israel. Right outside of the Northern wall of Jerusalem there is a street and 30 yards from this street is a 30 foot high stone cliff and in the middle of that cliff is a sculptured stone skull about 12 feet high which is called Golgotha or Skull Hill {as per Matthew 27:33 & Mark 15:22} where our Lord was crucified in the new **HOLY PLACE**!
Mark 15:22,24: They brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha which means place of the Skull... And they Crucified Him!
Certainly a Satanic Jewish Temple with meaningless sacrifices for sin is no longer a **HOLY PLACE**. This action by 666 will take place a little over 3 1/2 days before the 2nd Coming of Jesus when the 7th angel will sound the 7th and Last Trumpet in Rev 11:15:
Revelation 11:15,18: The 7th angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ... The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name!"
**DID JESUS **ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS** 3 1/2 YEARS AFTER HIS **ANOINTING**??
It is interesting to note that in Daniel 9:24: 70 7's or 490 years have been decreed to **ANOINT THE MOST HOLY ** {After 69 7's or 483 years} **AND** **TO ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS** which took place 3 1/2 years after His Anointing. If the last 7 years is completely in the future then the **ATONING FOR WICKEDNESS** by the Anointed One **CAN NOT BE INCLUDED** in the 70 7's!!
Daniel 9:24-27: Seventy "sevens" {**70 YEARS** times 7 or 490 years} are decreed for your people and your holy city to **ANOINT HE MOST HOLY** {After 69 7's or 483 Years}, to **ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS** {After 486 1/2 years}and to bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** {On the Last Day of the Last 1260-day Tribulation or 490 total years}...From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus--See Isaiah 44:28} until the Anointed One comes {On October 5th AD 29}, there will be 62 7's and 7 7's {Or 69 7's or 483 years}... Then {3 1/2 years or 1278 days later} the Anointed One will be cut off...He will confirm a Covenant with many for one 7 {Or the Last 7 years}. In the middle of the 'seven' {After 3 1/2 years} He {The Anointed One} will put an **END TO SACRIFICES** and offering.{On April 3-5 AD 33} {And then after a long pause} He will set up an abomination that causes desolation {666} for 1260 days, until the decreed end is poured out on him at the 2nd Coming of Jesus {As per Rev 19:19,20 and 2 Thess 2:8} Which will bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** on the Last Day of the **70 YEARS** times 7 Prophecy!
**DID JESUS ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS 3 1/2 YEARS AFTER HIS ANOINTING??
Luke 3:21,22: When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on Him {Anointing} in bodily form like a dove. And a Voice came from heaven: "You are My Son, whom I love; with You I am well pleased!"
**THE ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS IS THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST**!!
Matthew 26:28: Jesus says, "This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many **FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS**!"
Galatians 2:18-21: I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me! The life I live in the body, I live by **FAITH** in the Son of God, who loved me and **GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME**!! I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!!
Hebrews 9:12: He entered the Most Holy Place once for all by **HIS OWN BLOOD**, having obtained **ETERNAL REDEMPTION**!
Hebrews 9:22; 26-28: The law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood **THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS**.... But now He has appeared **ONCE FOR ALL** at the end of the ages to do away with sin **BY THE SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF**!! Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, and Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people, and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him!!
Ephesians 2:13: But now in Christ Jesus you who were once were far away have been brought near **THROUGH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST**!!
Hebrews 10:8-10: First He said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor were You pleased with them," although the law required them to be made. Then He said, "Here I am, I have come to do Your will." He sets aside the first **TO ESTABLISH THE SECOND**. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ **ONCE FOR ALL**!!
Romans 3:21-25: But now a righteousness from God, **APART FROM THE LAW**, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes **THROUGH FAITH** in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by **HIS GRACE** through the **REDEMPTION** that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Him as a **SACRIFICE OF ATONEMENT**, **THROUGH FAITH IN HIS BLOOD**!!
Colossians 1:15-20: He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities, all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the **HEAD OF HIS BODY, THE CHURCH**; He is the beginning and the firstborn from the dead, so that is **EVERYTHING HE MIGHT HAVE THE SUPREMACY**. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things **ON EARTH** or things in heaven, by making peace **THROUGH HIS BLOOD**, shed on the cross!!
Colossians 2:13-15: When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you **ALIVE WITH CHRIST**. He forgave us **ALL OUR SINS**, having canceled the written code, with its regulation, that was against us and that stood opposed to us, He took it away, **NAIILNG IT TO THE CROSS**!!.
Ephesians 1:3-8; 11: Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with **EVERY** spiritual blessing in Christ. For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and **BLAMELESS** in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will--to the praise of His **GLORIOUS GRACE**, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. In Him we have **REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD**, **THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS**, in accordance the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding!!
I Peter 1:18,19: For you know that was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were **REDEEMED** from the empty way of life handed down to you by your forefathers, but with the **PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST**, Lamb without blemish or defect!!
I Peter 2:24,25: He Himself **BORE OUR SINS** in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness, by **HIS WOUNDS** we are healed{See Isaiah 53:5,6}!! For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls!!
I Peter 3:18 For Christ **DIED FOR SINS ONCE FOR LL**, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God!!
I John 2:1,2: My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have One who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the **ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR
SINS**, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world!!
I John 4:10-12: This is **LOVE**, not that we loved God, but that He **LOVED** us and sent His Son as an **ATONING SACRIFICE** for our sins. Dear friends, since God so **LOVED** us, we also ought to **LOVE** one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we **LOVE** one another, God **LIVES IN US** and His **LOVE** is made complete in us.
Revelation 1:4,5: Grace and peace to you from Him who is, and who was, and who is to come and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful Witness... To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins **BY HIS BLOOD**!!
NOTE: Jesus Christ our Savior is called the **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation.
Revelation 5:6,9: Then I saw a **LAMB**, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne...You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals because You were slain , and **WITH YOUR BLOOD** You purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation!!
Revelation 12:11: They overcame him by the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB** and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!!
Revelation 7:14: These are they who have come out of the Great Tribulation, they have was their robes and made them white in the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB**!!
Isaiah 53:5,6: But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His wounds we are healed! We all, like sheep, have gone astray , each of us has turned to his own way, and **THE LORD HAS LAID ON HIM THE INIQUITY OF US ALL**!!
Romans 5:6-10: You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless. Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates His love for us in this: While we were still sinners **CHRIST DIED FOR US**. Since we are now justified **BY HIS BLOOD**, how much more will we be saved from God's wrath through Him! When we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to Him **THROUGH THE DEATH OF HIS SON**!!
So God's Word absolutely confirms that Jesus put an end to all **SACRIFICES FOR SIN** 3 1/2 years after His Anointing!!
Revelation 13:5 and Daniel 7:25 confirm that 666 will exercise his authority for exactly 42 months which is also time {12 months}, times {24 months} and 1/2 a time {6 months}
And Daniel 12:1,2,7 confirms that the Great Tribulation will last exactly time, times and 1/2 a time which is also exactly 42 months.
There is absolutely no Scripture that shows that the reign of 666 or the Great Tribulation will last over 42 months!!
In the prophetic book of Revelation 42 months is mentioned 2 times; 1260 days 2 times and time times and 1/2 time one time There is absolutely no reference or even an implication of a 7-year Great Tribulation or a 7- year reign of 666!!
It is interesting to note that in Daniel 9:24: 70 7's or 490 years have been decreed to **ANOINT THE MOST HOLY ** {After 69 7's or 483 years} and **TO ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS** which took place 3 1/2 years after His Anointing. If the last 7 years is completely in the future then the **ATONING FOR WICKEDNESS** by the Anointed One **CANNOT BE INCLUDED** in the 70 7's!!
**Salvation is 100% Free but Heavenly **REWARDS** are 100% earned**

**WHAT ABOUT THE 1290 DAY, 1335 DAY AND 2300 MORNING AND EVENING PROPHECIES IN DANIEL**??
Daniel 8:21-25: The shaggy goat is the king of Greece {Alexander the Great}... The 4 horns that replaced the one that was broken off represent 4 kingdoms that will emerge from his nation.. In the latter part of his reign, when rebels have become completely wicked, a stern faced king {Antiochus Epiphanes} a master of intrigue, will arise. He will become very strong, but not by his own power. He willl cause astounding devastation and will succeed in whatever he does He will destroy the holy men and the holy people. He will cause deceit to prosper, and he will consider himself superior. When they feel secure, he will destroy many and take his stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be destroyed but not by human power. Daniel 11:45: He will pitch his his royal tents between the seas and the beautiful holy mountain. Yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.
Daniel 8:11-14: Daniel 11:31,32: His armed forces will rise up to desecrate the temple fortress and will abolish the daily sacrifice. They will set up the abomination that causes desolation. With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist him.
Daniel 8:13,14: Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another holy one said to him, "How long will it take for the vision to be fulfilled--the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, the rebellion that caudses desolation, and the surrender of the sanctuary and the host that will be trampled underfoot?" He said to me, "It will take 2300 evenings and mornings {1150 days}; then the sanctuary will be reconsecrated ."
Ezra 3:3: They built the altar on its foundation and sacrificed burnt offerings on it to the Lord, **BOTH THE THE MORNING AND EVENING SACRIFICES**! I Chronicles 16:40: To present burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of burn offering regularly, **MORNING AND EVENING**, in accordance with everything written in the Law of the Lord. {An d so 2300 morning and evening sacrifices would take exactly 1150 days!}
Daniel 12:11,12: From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished {For 1150 days} and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1290 days. Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of the 1335 days.
The end-time prophecies in Daniel 12:1:1-10 was a parenthesis between Daniel 11:45 and Daniel 12:11. Prophecies in the OT were always a parenthesis in the text such as Isaiah 9:6,7 and Isaiah 11:1-5.
I Macabees 1:10-15: A wicked king, Antiochus Epiphanes...Some Jews went to the king {Antiochus} and received authority to introduce non-Jewish laws and customs.They removed their marks of circumcision and repudiated the holy covenant. They intermarried with Gentiles and abandoned themselves to evil ways..... On his return from his conquest of Egypt, Antiochus marched with a strong force against Israel and Jerusalem. In his arrogance he entered the Temple and carried off the golden **ALTAR**, the Lamp-stand with its equipment, the table for the Bread of Presence, the sacred cups and bowls and the curtain.... He had caused much bloodshed, and he gloated over all he had done.
I Macabees 4:52-59: Then, early on the 25th day in the 9th month, the month of Kislev, in the year 148 {December 13th, 164 BC} sacrifice was offered as the law commands on the newly made altar of burnt-offering...The Altar was rededicated with hymns of thanksgiving, to the music of harps and lutes and cymbals.. All the people prostrated themselves, worshiping and praising heaven that their cause had prospered. They celebrated the rededication of the altar for 8 days; there was great rejoicing and they brought burnt-offerings and celebrated peace-offerings and thank-offerings. There was great merry making among the people and the disgrace brought upon them by the Gentiles was removed. Then Judas, his brothers, and the whole congregation of Israel decreed that the rededication of the Altar should be observed with joy and gladness at the same season each year, for 8 days! {**HANUKA**}
The 8-day celebration of **HANUKA** has been celebrated by Jews every year since 164 BC to this very year. The morning and evening sacrifices were abolished by Antiochus for 1150 days before December 13th, 164 BC. Antiochus set up the Abomination in the temple 1290 days before December 13th, 164 BC. And the Jews were severely persecuted by the army of Antiochus for the 1335 days before December 13th, 164 BC as per Daniel 12:11,12.
And so the prophetic time periods of 1150 days, 1290 days and 1335 days have already been completely fulfilled and have nothing to do with the end-time prophetic time periods.
